New foundation honors Berthold '44

By Xiaolin Zhao | June 26, 2007

The Tucker Foundation has created a fellowship named after the Reverend Fred Berthold Jr. '44, a former professor who founded Dartmouth's religion department and was also the Foundation's first dean. The Berthold Fellowship allocates an annual stipend of $1,000 for a graduate student of the College to work for the Tucker Foundation for a year on projects that reflect the intersection of faith and service. "The most important contribution religion makes is in the area of social work," said Berthold, who also discussed the relationship between faith and social work in his address at the College's annual Baccalaureate Service on June 9. "I was completely surprised and also very happy to be remembered in that way," Berthold said, upon being notified of the new fellowship. The evolving mission of the Tucker foundation reflects the changing visions of the college itself, according to Berthold. "When John Sloan Dickey in 1951 announced there would be a Tucker Foundation, he said that a liberal education that is any good must have equal emphasis on competence and conscience," Berthold said in a press release.
