A History of the American School of Classical Studies, 1882-1942

Appendix VI: Directory of Trustees, Managing Committee, Faculty and Students,1882–1942

Professor Thomas Day Seymour wrote the history of The First Twenty Years of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens (1882–1902). To this history he appended a list of the Managing Committee of the School, a list of the chairmen of the committees of the Managing Committee, a directory of the students of the School and a list of the School publications.

It seemed appropriate in connection with this history to issue a complete list of the trustees, managing committee, faculty and students of the School from its founding till 1942.
Mr. Benjamin D. Meritt has made many helpful corrections and suggestions. The editorial work has been most acceptably done by Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Hartman.
