Land Grant College Officials
To Discuss National Problems
National problems as they relate to higher education will get
the full attention of the American Association of Land-Grant Cot
leges and Universities at its meetings November 10 to 12 in the Wil
lard and Washington Hotels Washington, D. C., Dr. Ralph Dorn
Hetzel, president, said.
In senate meetings and in general assembly, officials of these
land-grant universities will dis
cuss such timely topics as uni
versal military training, federal
aid to higher education proposed
legislation on the National Sci
ence Foundation, veterans' affairs
in general, and the proposed fed
eral department of health, educa
tion and welfare.
"Because of the public charac
ter and the traditions of public ,
service, which have developed
about our land-grant colleges and
universities, they are destined to
grow in strength and influence,"
Dr. Hetzel predicts.
But in addition to meeting the
current problems resulting from
the influx of thousands of veter
ans, Dr. Hetzel, who also is presi
dent of the Pennsylvania State
College, believes our institutions
moat also look to the years
ahead.
"A flew concept recognizing
students as individuals is appar
ent, and new emphasis must be
placed on the humanities if we
are to prepare our young people
for thew place as citizens Of the
world," Dr. Hetzel said.
Before the general sessions of
the association begin, committees
will convene in preliminary
meetings on November 7 to 9.
Special, unit meetings also are
scheduled for the agricultural,
engineering, home economics, and
the arts and science divisions,
Dr. Russell I. Thackray, of Wash
ington, D.C., is executive secre
tary-treasurer of the associatio:
