April 16, 1949 eS aR ON President Joshua Lederberg The Rockefeller University 1230 York Avenue New York, New York 10021 _ the Dear President Lederberg: In Chancellor Bowker's absence from campus, I am responding to your timely letter of April 9, 1979 in support of Professor Herman Witkin for a possible appointment under the Chancellor's Distinguished Professors and Lecturers Program for the academic year 1979-80. I understand that the Department of Psychology is currently preparing an application to this Program for Dr. Witkin, and I have therefore sent the Chairman of the Department a copy of your letter for inclusion in his recommendation. For your further information about this Program, budgetary con- siderations limit the number of such appointments in any one year, and the many applications received are reviewed and recommended for appointment by a seven-member faculty committee. We very much appreciate receiving your letter in support of Dr. Witkin. & Sincerely yours, whe rhea Hugh McLean Acting Provost cc: Professor Stephen Glickman, Chairman, Dept. of Psychology
