Granted Application for James Raymond Lawson
-
Description
-
A 1937 and 1938 application file for James Raymond Lawson, a teacher at St. Augustine's College. He was granted $1,500 in 1937 and a renewal of $1,500 in 1938 to pursue a Ph.D. in physics at the University of Michigan, focusing on infra-red spectroscopy. A 1939 handwritten note critiques his application, implying that he had had a fellowship for two years, stating [for this man, we have done enough], ultimately denying his 1939 application.
