He is in a faculty suite, as you know, so that they can be accommodated this semester. He will probably find another place to live off of campus for next year. I think there is a pretty good likelihood that he will get support provided by foundation to maintain his family next year. I am talking with the man in charge of the Rockefeller Foundation next Monday and have already talked with Walter Stewart who is much interested in his thesis. It looks now as if Han Mueller, a German "refugee" who is taking Charles Smith's and Purves's place for the semester, will live in Hall House.Item Correspondence Between Robert Leigh and Edgar Fisher Suggesting Honorary Lecturers(Bennington College, 1940-09-05)Item Correspondence to President Robert Leigh and Jean Brockway regarding a Diego Rivera painting(Bennington College, 1936-03-06) Leigh, Robert; Brockway, Jean"I have been a little disturbed to see the Diego Rivera painting which Mr. Herring gave to the College removed from the place where it was hung."Item Letter from Charles Smith(Bennington College, 1935) Smith, CharlesItem Letter from Elizabeth Franklin(Bennington College, 1939-01-18) Franklin, ElizabethItem Letter from Mary Sanford to President Robert Devore Leigh (1932) Sanford, MaryRegarding the bell Mary Sanford is donating to the College for the cupola in Commons.Item Letter from President Leigh to President Ralph C.
