Thomas B. Chetwood| Selected for Law School by President. For the first time in the 58 years since the Georgetown University School of Law was founded, a Jesuit jest, the Rev. Thomas B. Chetwood, as assumed the position of regent, a newly created office similar to the regency in the other professional de- partments of the university. As regent, Father Chetwood is the versonal representative at the law school of Rev. W. Coleman Nevils, S. J., president of Georgetown and of the university directors, his duties being of a T;nenl supervisory capacity. His ap- pointment, it was announced today, was in accordance with the policy at all Jesult institutions to have a member of the order act in the capacity of re- gent at the professional schools whose faculties are largely and in some in- stances wholly drawn from laymen. Father Chetwood’s duties will not conflict in any way with those. of the dean of the law school, George E. Hamilton, nor with those of Hugh J. Fegan, assistant dean. The “appoint- ment of a regent at this time was re- garded as necessary, since Georgetown for many years has been the only Jesuit legal department without such 2 representative on its staff. Father Chetwood is widely known for his writings on church and legal mat- ters. Several of his legal text books are used in the courses at Georgetown and at all other Jesuit law schools in this c?untry.t His sel?cuoxfiy mmm;eg.;u;am of regent was primari ion of these qualifications. Since his first assignment to faculty of Georgetown University in the Summer of 1925, Father Chetwood has been teaching apologetics and psychol- ogy at the college and filling the chair of philosophy, also. at the school of for- eign service. He is considered one of | the most popular members of the faculty. | Born in New York City in 1881, Father Chetwood was admitted to the Society of Jesus in 1898 and was or- dained as a priest 16 years later, after finishing his studies at Woodstock g&wfl wmh gd, flli:’ lvel: early education in private school and graduated from St. Francis Xavier College in New York. $410 LARCENY- CHARGED.
