recently established The Robert N. Anthony Fellowship fund to honor Professor
Emeritus Robert
Anthony '38's extraordinary contributions and dedication to
the Harvard Business School and to the field of business accounting. The fund
is to provide fellowship support to deserving M.B.A. students at the school, with
a preference for students who have a military background and an interest in
accounting and control. Anthony, who served in World War II as lieutenant commander
in the Navy Supply Corps and from 1965 to 1968 as the assistant secretary of defense,
controller, joined the Harvard Business School faculty in 1940 and was a faculty
member until his retirement in 1983. He is the author or co-author of 27 books
and more than 100 articles that have been translated into 13 languages. His Accounting:
Text and Cases (10th edition), Management Control Systems (ninth edition)
and Management Control in Nonprofit Organizations (sixth edition)
were among the first texts and casebooks on these subjects. . . . Retired
teacher Martha Wakefield Falcone '38 wrote
that her first three daughters were born in China when she was working for

oldest daughter has gone to China with her own two daughters, Jaime, 3, and
Anika, 2. . . . Marjorie Gould Shuman '37 is busy with her
post-teaching career. Whether leading a program on Henrik Ibsen, leading a

she returned to the College nearly every year until 1999 and always enjoyed her
visits to the beautiful campus. . . . Robert Borovoy '39 writes
