It was learned yesterday that Dr. Edward Cyril Wynne '17 has resigned his post as instructor in the Department of Government in the University to take over a position in the State Department at Washington. He will leave tomorrow night and assume his new position as Assistant Solicitor in the Immigration Office immediately on Monday morning.
Since his graduation from Harvard College in 1917 Dr. Wynne has had considerable connection with the State Department so that the position is not entirely new to him. He was a delegate to the Peace Conference in Paris at the conclusion of the World War and served as secretary to the American Embassy in Tokio the two following years. After serving for two years in Washington he returned to Harvard and did some special work on immigration, besides teaching Government 18a and 18b, courses in International Relations. In 1927 Dr. Wynne also served as delegate to the International Radio and Telegraph Conference in Washington.
Dr. Wynne stated last night that it was a great surprise to him when the position was tendered him just two weeks ago and that he is leaving Harvard with great regrets. He was originally to have two courses, Government 4 and 15, this semester. These courses will be taken over by another member of the Department of Government who is yet to be announced.
