The George M. Haslerud Undergraduate Research Conference
April 28, 2006


George Martin Haslerud (1906-1990)
George Haslerud began his career in psychology with a Bachelor's degree from the University of Minnesota in 1930. After completing his dissertation on creative transfer in 1934, he took a position at the Institute of Human Relations at Yale University where he pursued an interest in primate behavior. In 1936 he became an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee where he married Ethlyn Hurd and began a family. In 1945 they moved to New Hampshire where Haslerud joined the Psychology Department.

Both Hasleruds were founding members of the New Hampshire Psychological Association. Haslerud made many contributions to the Department of Psychology here at UNH. He was a general psychologist who spent a great deal of time mentoring students and teaching a range of courses, sending many of his students on to graduate schools and careers in psychology. Haslerud also brought with him an important global perspective, twice receiving Fulbright Fellowships for study abroad. He maintained an interest in department and university activities until his death in 1990. It is in honor of this important UNH educator that we acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of current UNH undergraduates today.

Q. Is a large head a sign of intelligence?
A. There is normally no relationship between intelligence and the size of the head. The very largest and the very smallest brains belong to idiots but there is no correlation otherwise according to Dr. G. M. Haslerud, U-T psychologist.
