Sloan Fellows On June 17, 43 Sloan Fellows reported to begin the 1961-62 Sloan Fellowship Program. Their introduction to the program was a week-long session in sensitivity training under the leadership of Professors Schein and Bennis. The summer term ended with field visits to several companies in the Northeast. These included a visit to Sprague Electric Company, arranged by former Sloan Fellow Robert C. Sprague, Jr., '58. The Fellows also traveled to Rochester, N. Y., for a visit with the Delco Appliance and Rochester Products Divisions of General Motors. These visits were under the guidance of John G. Hart, '61, and Harold Stahl '61. A very full day was spent with Eastman Kodak Company where the current Fellows met M. Wren Gabel, '39, Charles R. Adler, '60, Edward H. Carman, '59, David S. Greenlaw, '57, Robert W. Miller, '52, Wylie S. Robson, '56, Robert A. Sherman, '55, and George E. Yeomans, '41. The Board of Governors of the Society of Sloan Fellows met at M.I.T. on June 13. The newly elected Governors are Daniel K. Chinlund, '50, Joseph T. Cosby, Jr., '40, John H. Gerstenmaier, '52, Walter P. Rozett, '60, and Maurice J. Laurier, '61 (Annual). The new officers elected at this meeting are: Wylie S. Robson, '56, President; E. Endres Bahls, '42, Vice-President; Harrison T. Price, '55, secretary; Daniel K. Chinlund, '50, treasurer.
