15,000 Yanks to Attend New Army
College.
The American Army University, the
largest university in the English-
speaking world, has been opened in
Beaunay, southeast of Paris.
Fifteen thousand soldiers have en-
rolled for a three month’s course. The
faculty of 500 members, chiefly drawn
from the American Expedition Forc-
es, is headed by Col. Ira IL Reeves,
formerly president of Norwich Uni-
versity in Vermont. : ’
The buildings now serving as study
halls and the dormitories were used
during the war as an American hos-
pital. A farm of 600 acres is used as
the main agriculturel college, while
former workshops of the hospital sup-
ply headquarters are being utilized by
classes in engineering. The universi-
ty has opened a branch at Bellevue,
near Versailles, for nearly 1,000 stu-
dents of art and architecture. =
The American Army University is
one of the four features of the educa-
tional system introduced for the bene-
fit of the Expeditionary Force. The
other features are: Post schools in all
organizations for elementary work,
divisional headquarters in all Army
corps and divisions for vocational
training and general education of high
school grades, and the. detail of offi-
cers and soldiers, as students at the
French and British universities for
post graduates college work.
The entire educational system 1s in
charge of Brig. Gen. Thomas Henry
Reeves, who was chairman of the War
Department’s committee on education
and special training, and organized the
Student’s Army Training Corps in
American colleges. :
Approximately 250 American edu-
cators who have been sent overseas in
the last few months, and with about
200 educational secretaries previously
sent by the Y.M.C. A., they make up
the administrative staff. Most of the
teachers however, are taken from the
Army.—Ex.
