This long-festering problem had become terrifyingly acute during the mass riots leading up to and following the partition of the country in 1947. UNESCO invited Dr. Gardner Murphy, then head of the Psychology Department of City College, New York, to serve the Indian universities as consultant. Dr. Murphy spent six months in India helping to set up integrated research on the problem by university workers. He here reports the background and results of this research.
