Katie Johnson and Jim Altman prepare wreath for Behrend Chapel. Meet Your Faculty By Dave Weekley Almost every student on the Behrend Campus has inquired at one time or another about hand some, well-dressed Mr. William Hover. His courteous manner, his genial personality, and his wealth of knowledge about the arts have made him the frequent target for the questions of many curious students. What about this man? Through his patience and cooper ation, for which he has my thanks, I compiled the informa tion below. Mr. William A. Hover was born in Birmingham, Alabama. Follow ing high school, he served during World War n in the Civil Affairs Corps. During his torn: of duty he spent two years in Europe and was stationed in England, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, and Italy, which explains his store of first-hand information about these countries. He also visited and toured Mexico this past sum mer. In 1948 he graduated from the University of Cincinnati where he majored in French and minored in Spanish. While teaching as a fulltime instructor of romance languages at the University of n, , Hanging the Green North Carolina, he studied for his master of arts degree, which he received in 1949, and contin ued his work toward a doctor of philosophy degree. He completed these studies in 1951. He also held a f ive-y ear concurrent scholarship at the Cincinnati College of Music and the Cincin nati Conservatory of Music. After teaching for two years as an as sistant professor of romance languages at Furman University, Greensville, S. C., he came to the Pennsylvania State University where he now holds- the same po sition. His academic interests include early 19th century French liter ature, especially the French poets of the Romantic period, and Greek literature. Besides his well-known musical interests and participation in lo cal musical affairs, Mr. Hover mentions oil painting, ceramics, high fidelity apparatus, and lapi dary as his personal interests. As the information would indi cate, here is truly a man of cul ture and the arts, a pleasant dis covery in this age of machines and running people. Mr. Hover is surely our gain and Furman’s loss.
