Jean Vernon Wilson, Master in Architecture 1915, of Pittsburgh, Pa., has been awarded the Robinson Fellowship in Architecture for 1916-18. The design of James Hicks Stone, Master in Architecture 1915, of Fayetteville, Ark., was placed second and was highly commended. The subject for the competition this year was "A Monument to the Unknown Dead in a Great War," to be placed on the banks of a river against a steep hill. The jury consisted of Dr. Charles Allerton Coolidge '81 and Guy Lowell '92, acting with the instructors in the School.
The Robinson Fellowship, which is similar to the Appleton Fellowship and which alternates with it, sends the successful competitor to study his profession in Europe for two years. The competition is open only to graduates of the School of Architecture. Five candidates presented themselves this year.
Owing to the disturbed conditions in Europe, due to the war, the successful candidate is given the option of going to Europe now, or waiting until the termination of the war.
