to Turkey will be set up by the
University in late June if final
approval is stamped on negotiations between UK and Corps
officials.
The trainees would be divided
between two groups of 75 volunteers each. The first group
would go directly into their assignments after the summer training.
A second group which Dr.
Willis Griffin, temporary project
director in the Center for Developmental Change, says the
Peace Corps calls an Advanced
Training group, would come here
after their junior year in college
and return to finish their degrees
after the summer period.
The first group of trainees
would spend six weeks at UK
doing work in community development and language, study,
and develop skills and understanding for "cross cultural
living," Dr. Griffin said.
Following the period at UK,
the volunteers would go to an
abandoned village outside Ankara, Turkey, to gain further experience in Turkish living and
accustom themselves to Turkish
festivals and customs.
The Advanced Training group
would remain on the UK campus
for 10 weeks spending more time
on social and community development problems.
One of the more important
phases of the Advanced Training
would send volunteers into the
Cuinberlands to be "interned"
in community development projects not unlike those to be established in Turkey.
The Advanced Trainees would
return to their own colleges and
universities to complete their
degrees, taking some course

The entire project woidd be

"The odds are in fav or of our

now know or cannot surmount,"
Dr. Criffin stated.
Dr. Criffin is assistant director Technical Assistance Programs in the Center for Developmental Change.
He said one of the key elements in the proposed Univ ersity
project is an evaluation of Peace
Corps workers in the field a
function which he adds has not
heretofore been done by schools
also in training and supervisory
roles.
"Four other colleges and universities are training volunteers
for Turkey, but only in two
cases the University of Texas
and Occidental (Calif.) College-- do
they hav e personnel in Turkey

Criffin said.
New York University, Portand
land State
University,
Princeton also have training programs for Turkish volunteers.
However, Dr. Criffin emphasized, none of the other schools
evaluate the work done by Corps
volunteers.
The University would first
train Corps volunteers at the Lexington campus and in Turkey.

Its next step would be an evaluation b a special factilt) team
of how the volunteers perform
in rural Turkish communities.
A third step in the project
would involve bringing back the
volunteers todo graduate work at the University on
a voluntary basis.
Dr. Criffin says the University
sees the. new project as' a "very
rich potential for making education more significant, a potential
for building together undergraduate. Peace Corps, and graduate
study into a much fuller educational experience than. before."

bility" that rocs with the job

withdraw, but each applicant
should realize that if he is elected
the post will require some time
and effort. Congress should be
number one on his activity list."

From six to 10 area coordinators, two or three administrators,

All of the language instructors

Dr. Crilfin cited four reasons
for choice of the University for

1. UK's position

In the town of Fullerton, Calif.,
there lives The Rev. Mr. Albert

Imposition
To allay a deficit in its budget
the Women's Residence Hall Council is considering a possible assessment of women living in University
residence halls.
Though the assessment would
not be great (25 cents is proposed),
it would be an imposition on the
residents. Already the residents are
required to pay a "social fee,"
though they are given no opportunity to approve or disapprove of
the "services" provided by thisfee.
The WRH assessment, if approved, would be only one more of
a number of financial impositions
placed on women living in the
dormitories. In all fairness the
social fees should be abolished, as
many women prefer to seek their
social life elsewhere than the women's dormitories. Also an unfair
imposition is the requirement that
women serve a certain number of
hours as hostesses at the reception
desks at the dormitories. The women are paying tenants and certainly should not be imposed upon
to perform staff functions in the
dormitory nor to support supplementary programs they have no
chance to approve.

Negro child. In the words of The
Rev. Mr. Cohen, a U.S. Naval
Academy graduate and veteran of

the Selma march, "We thought

r

we could stand it, but neither of
us has the stamina to do the job.
It was the worst decision we ever

had to make."
And what brought the Cohens
to this anguishing decision to give
up a much loved child? Almost
a year of anonymous telephone
threats such as: "Have you checked
all the kids lately? One of them
might be gone."
The vast majority of Americans,
whatever their own feelings mfght
be regarding interracial adoption,
will find thoroughly revolting the
anonymous threats and ugly harassment to which this couple have
been subjected over the past
months. (Happily, their experience
is the exception rather than the
rule in a growing number of interracial adoptions.)
What has gone on in this Orange
County community is diametrically
opposed to the impulse of the
American heart. The day will yet
come when innocent children need
no longer suffer as a result of the
warped and twisted thinking of
those presumed to have reached
maturity.

To the

Editor of the Kernel:

Recently an outraged parent
complained to me "I have paid
several hundred dollars to the University of Kentucky and now, just
because my daughter's grades were
not above a 2.0, she is not permitted
to return. I think the University is
actually making a profit from the
freshman; registering a large number who will not make the required standing, collecting fees,
and then taking more freshmen to
fill places vacated. Such replacement freshmen bring an additional
tuition fee for the same opening."
Obviously the reasoning behind
these statements are as distorted as
the accusations made by the parent
cited in your editorial of March 11
who implied that the sororities were

g
run on a
basis; pledging a large number of girls that
won't make their grades, collecting
fees and then replacing the vacancies with new pledges. Actually the
sororities lose money on pledges
who do not make the required
standing of 2.2 after given two
semesters in which to make it.
Just as it is not a waste of
money for a girl to attend the
University for one year, it is not
a waste of money for a girl to be
a pledge of a sorority for one year.
From her association with the
sorority she receives many cultural
and social benefits which far outweigh the smaller burden of her
pledge fees.

has spent 33 months of his life
in jail for a belief, a commitment to his conscience.
At the une of 20, Salstrom
refused to carry his draft card,
sending it back to his local board.
In consequence, he received an
order to report for induction.
Tlie writer is a student at the
University of California, Berkeley.

Salstrom refused to comply
on the grounds that "any affiliation with the system is an
affiliation with militarism."
He was then arrested and
sentenced by a Federal District
Court to a three year sentence
in prison. After fasting for the
first 15 days of his sentence in
prison, he was transferred to
the Medical Center for Federal
Prisoners in Springfield, Mo.
Salstrom got a "manatory release" after two years of g(xul
conduct.
However, he was
and sentenced to an additional
nine months in the Danbury
Correctional
Institution after
violating the terms of his release by organizing an anti-dracaravan.
After his release in June, 1965,

Paul Salstrom is a case in

commitment to conscience supersedes all else, even his regard
for personal safety.
He believes that one's consideration of the draft must be

For Salstrom, the "life and
in Vietnam
is a paramount concern, and
must not be "relegated to secondary status."
Expressing much dissatisfaction with the peace movement,
Salstrom believes that the current pacifist tactics will not be
effective until they go beyond
token sacrifices exemplified by
s
and marches.
"If the coalition peace movement does not go beyond the
street or beyond a few easy years
in jail beyond the confines, that
is, of liberal consensus-oriente- d
