The honorary degree, Doctor of Hebrew Letters, was conferred on Prof. Louis Ginzberg of the Jewish Theological Seminary at Founder’s Day exercises of Dropsie College Sunday night, marking the close of the institution’s 33rd year. Dr. Abraham Neuman, president of the college, paid tribute to him as “the peerless rabbinic scholar of our century.” Ph.D. degrees were awarded to the Rev. Charles Muhlenberg Cooper, Assistant Professor of Old Testament at Lutheran Theological Seminary, Mt. Airy, Pa., and Louis Schoffman, tutor in Hebrew at Brooklyn College.
