By Jordan E. Kurland
Bertram H. Davis died on July 12, 2007, at age 88. He was a member of the AAUP staff from 1957 to 1974, serving from 1967 as general secretary. Resuming his academic career as professor of English at Florida State University, he remained highly active in AAUP work over the next three decades, chairing Committee A on Academic Freedom and Tenure, remaining with that body as a consultant, and chairing four investigating committees. A memorial is being planned for the next issue of Academe.
