We have long known and been open about the antagonistic relationship between the Managing Committee Chair Edward Capps and the School Director Bert Hodge Hill. Interested readers can find this material in two articles: Robert L. Pounder, “The Blegens and the Hills: A Family Affair,” in Carl W. Blegen: Personal and Archaeological Narratives, ed. N. Vogeikoff-Brogan, J.L. Davis, and V. Florou, Atlanta 2015, pp. 85-98; David W. Rupp, “Mutually Antagonistic Philhellenes: Edward Capps and Bert Hodge Hill at the American School of Classical Studies and Athens College,” in J. L. Davis and N. Vogeikoff-Brogan (eds). Philhellenism, Philanthropy or Political Convenience? American Archaeology in Greece, Hesperia 82:1, 2013, pp. 67-99. As for the controversy between Capps and M. Carey Thomas of Bryn Mawr over a women’s hostel and the construction of Loring Hall, see the Archivist blogs: <br />https://nataliavogeikoff.com/2017/09/01/grace-macurdy-of-vassar-college-scholar-teacher-and-proto-feminist/<br />https://nataliavogeikoff.com/2016/04/01/clash-of-the-titans-the-controversy-behind-loring-hall/<br /><br />Prof. Jenifer Neils (Director ASCSA)http://www.ascsa.edu.grnoreply@blogger.com
