Dr. Max F. Meyer, psychology professor at the University of Missouri who was suspended for a year in April, 1929, for issuing a sex questionnaire, has been ousted permanently by the Board of Curators for insubordination. He has, however, been granted a year’s appointment for research at the Central Institute for the Deaf at St. Louis.
Dr. Meyer, in an address before the Southern Society for Philosophy and Psychology at Nashville, Tenn., assailed the board and referred to two members as mentally unfit. In a statement last night, Dr. Meyer apologized for having spoken harshly of board members.
