Harvard’s Gates to be Visiting Scholar at Princeton Think Tank
TRENTON, N.J.
The chairman of Harvard University’s Department of Afro-American Studies is joining a think tank in Princeton for one year as a visiting scholar.
Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. ended a widely watched academic tug-of-war in December, announcing he would remain as head of Harvard’s Afro-American Studies program rather than follow two prominent colleagues, Dr. Cornel West and Dr. K. Anthony Appiah, to Princeton University.
