Offering not "a group of answers"
but a "springboard to a look at the
future," President John W. Oswald
the University's academic
to the academic staff at an
blueprint
open meeting last night.
presented

Entitled "Beginning a Second Century The University of Kentucky Academic
Program: Analysis and Prospects," the
plan was offered by the president as a
blueprint for a study of demands on the
University and a search for how the University might best meet these demands.
The president said that he was appointing a faculty committee from a list
recommended by the Faculty Council to
lead discussion and examination of the
academic blueprint.
The president said that he hoped discussion of the analysis might be complete by May, 1965, and set the academic

as a time when the Facyear of 1965-6- 6
ulty and the administration could begin
working together in formulating an actual
blueprint for the future academic blueprint of the University.
The president told the Faculty that
he hoped 1966 the first year of the University's second century would be a time
when initial implementation of the blueprint might begin.
Dr. Oswald also reminded the Faculty that 1966 would be another budget-requeyear as the General Assembly
would be in session.
Dr. Oswald addressed a capacity crowd
in Memorial Hall and told them that they
represented the group that determined
just where the University was going.
He listed seven reasons why he believes this is an "exciting" period to be
at UK:
1. This is the period of greatest
growth in terms of enrollment (a trend
noticeable on other major university campuses also).
2. Hopefully accompanying this growth

in "quantity," is a corresponding "qualitative" growth. (Dr. Oswald said that the
University is engaged in a major effort
to attract the best students and discussions of how to attract and retain a quality faculty.)
3. The University is consistently becoming a more complex organization. (He
noted that the University was rapidly
changing from one of a regional concern
to a major national university.)
4. Greater and greater demands are
being made on the state university to be
a servant as well as a leader of society.
(Recalling a remark President Johnson
made at a White House luncheon for
land grant college presidents, Dr. Oswald
said the President had admonished state
college presidents to "go back home and
stuff your governors full of information
until it comes out their ears.")
5. There has been a tremendous increase in specialization in all fields and
this has caused all members of the University community to look at their own'

"Every day the pictures of

It is the custom for the man

The boy children eat next and
the girls eat last, but by this

Love is an unheard of concept
and they think of marriage in

The change was suggested to
the Faculty Council by President
John W. Oswald and the Faculty
Council officially recommended
the change to the Faculty last
night. Approval of the move was
unanimous
Dr. Charles Elton, dean of admissions and registrar, told the
Faculty that there were several
possible ways the early commencement could be held. He
sold that seniors could be given
their leather diploma folders at
the formal graduation and be
mailed the diplomas at a later
date. He also said diplomas
might be given out at his office
for seniors to pick up.
In moving the commencement
date, the Faculty also approved
moving the date that grades are
due from May 10 to May 12
two days after the formal graduation.
Dean Elton said that the Faculty and the Board of Trustees
would still have to meet and give
formal approval to the list of
graduates before the diplomas
could actually be given out.
President Oswald had told the
Board of Trustees at their June
meeting that he was contemplating such a recommendation. He

Dr. Oswald told the faculty that early
after his arrival at the University he begin to feel the University needed an academic plan. He noted that planning in
the past had been primarily in the nature
of an analysis of present situations and a
study of how to meet the present problems
rather than planning for future needs and
development.
The president said that daily decisions
were needed on the physical plant of the
University and what direction its development would take. Dr. Oswald said that
these decisions should be made on the

Tutors Face Challenge
Few are the times when a college
student is presented with the opportunity for service to his fellow man.
We are all too many times engrossed
in our own problems which, in the
academic rat race, are many and frustrating. When opportunities present
themselves, then, the thoughtful student will take them.
The University YMCA has issued
a challenge and supplied, thereby, a
chance for students to contribute their
part in the battle against illiteracy,
apathy, and lack of motivation among
students.
The "Y" is sponsoring a tutoring
program for high school students in
the Lexington City School System.
Both men and women students-includ- ing
those from widely-varyinbackgrounds academic will be spending one hour each week with a tenth-gradeleaching on a
basis.
In the quiet moments of instruction each week these tutors student
emissaries in the welfare field will
plant the seeds of future happiness
for these deprived youngsters. They
will be called on to not only aid the
student academically, but also to do
their part toward sparking these
youngsters' interest in the pursuit of
learning.

tucky, but, as the coordinator of the
program, John O'Brien, said, it is still
disgracefully high.
The tutors must counteract the
pressure brought to bear by parents
whose primary desire and most pressing problem is to provide food and
clothing for their children. It is parents such as these who blunt a young
person's motivation, and eventually
destroy it.
The tutors must exemplify the
benefits of continuing an education.
Continuing in school must become a
more appealing prospect than dropping out and going to work. A job
seems to offer freedom from the confines of the school and the benefits
of money to spend.

aid money, the corruption or abuse
to which it has been subverted, has
come in the military parts of the program. There have been economic mistakes, too, but these have been minor
in amount and steadily brought under
better control. The economic part of
the program is now by far the best.
Many of the sharpest critics of
foreign aid, if they only knew, would
be the first to justify the frank and
use of the

monies that have been flung into this

York's Seneca Indians, .was speaking
to a congressional committee four
years ago. It appeared that his people
had finally lost their
fight
agaitist the partial flooding of their
lands by a dam designed to control
floods elsewhere.
The plans proceeded. The Kinua
Dam goes into operation this fall. The
question is how far the finally passed
$15,000,000 damage and rehabilitation bill compensates for having to
sell a parent.
In purely financial terms it can be
argued that the sum is less than what
the government saved during recent
years when the Senecas have not had
the services of the Bureau of Indian
Affairs. If it is used with efficiency
and understanding, it could soften the
shock of separation from the land in
ways not covered by the cold cash
payments for it that began in July.
To be sure, some of the Senecas
are claimed to have been as much
interested in the cash as in their community. But we believe it is more than
a romantic notion to say that land
has a special meaning for Indians. In
the case of the Senecas, a treaty of
1791 pledged that the United States
would "never claim" their land, nor
"disturb the Seneca nation in the
free use of the same," but the land

"shall remain theirs until they choose

The Senecas can hardly be said
to "have chosen to sell. It took the
Supreme Court to rule that the treaty
could be broken. We agree with the
Seneca woman who said, "Not all the
money in the world could pay for
what we are losing."
There were reasons for building
the dam. The tangibles of life must
be considered along with the intangibles of feeling and tradition. Indians are not unique as displaced persons in today's world. Yet no American heart should be without a pang
whenever the comparatively humane
encroachments of today add to the
harsh record of Indian expulsion in
the past.

Criticism On Foreign Aid
Americans ought to recognize, but
usually don't, that the typical debate
on foreign aid goes wide of the mark.
There is a widespread misconception
about the aid program. It is thought
to be a costly effort to improve the
economies and standards of living of
developing countries, which is largely misused by being channeled into
the hands of politicians and various
sorts of corruption in those countries.
To begin with, it is generally reckoned that one half of the present reduced aid program is not economic
at all. It is military. It consists of
weapons and services going largely to
South Korea, Taiwan, and Pakistan.
There is also some military aid to the
Western Allies.
miliBut the estimate of one-hal- f
tary is misleading. Actually, military
and paramilitary aid are a much larger proportion. Theer are programs
that look as if they were economic, but
actually are to ship American goods
into a country, so as to raise local
currency for military purposes without inflating the local economy. This
has traditionally been called "defense supjKrt aid" and is now listed
under various other categories. There
is also aid in support of weak currencies whose collapse wolud have
immediate military effects.
Then there is the type of aid that
one is tempted to call State Department slush funds, but is better called
political funds for special needs in
foreign policy. These are military at
base. They arc funds used to shore
up weak governments, sometimes allies and sometimes not, where a Comis threatened. These
munist take-ove- r
funds, rushed into conaie cold-wafused situations on an emergency
