Mr. Jeffrey R. Brackett '83, of Baltimore, spoke briefly on "The College Graduate in Charity," at a conference of the Social Service Committee in Phillips Brooks House last night. He out-lined the growth of state boards of charity, prison reform conferences, and other agencies for social work during the last twenty-five years. There are at present great opportunities in charitable work open to college graduates as members of a special corps of trained workers, as managers of charitable institutions and agencies, and as individual workers with individuals.
