I changed the work institution in the info box from Harvard to Columbia, where Richards was on faculty from 1925 until he died. (See http://www.columbia.edu/cu/pr/special/nowin.html.) Even if a Harvard prof supervised him in NYC beginning in 1928 -- which seems doubtful, even though his Nobel Museum biography (http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1956/richards-bio.html) says so -- that wouldn't have made Richards a Harvard researcher. I also added Yale to his alma maters in the info box. 4.131.157.86 (talk) 20:20, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
