In the case of <\/span>Albert H. Swartz \u201836, (1913-1971)<\/b>, two distinct yet related themes overlap: antisemitism in the medical practice \u2014 and indeed America as a whole \u2014 and antisemitism at Williams. In particular, the language with which Williams College President Tyler Dennett and John A. Sampson of Albany Medical College described Swartz and others with his religious background shines some light on the perception of Jewish people in elite, white, Protestant institutions in the 1930s.<\/span><\/p>\n
