THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
versity in 1932.
The headquarters of the com
mittee was established in the
Education Building in Harrisburg,
with Walter Keatney, associate
director of the University place
ment service, as executive sec-
etary.
The various subcommittees
went to work on some of the
major problems of developing
the system. The work of the
committees included:
Defining the objectives and
functions of educational televis
ion.
sMaking an analysis of th e
financial requirements and
sources of funds.
*Studying legal and legislative'
problems.
*Planning the best possible
methods for getting maximum
cooperation between commercial
and non-commercial agencies.
The work of the JCET-Penn
sylvania was aimed principally
toward the Hershey Conference
which was held on Nov. 19 and
20, 1952.
The conference was planned
and organized by the JCET-P
and delegates from the state's
educational institutions, citi
zens groups, state government
offices, business and industry
attended it.
Reports from JCET-P commit
tees were heard and discussed by
members at the conference.
Dining the conference, Gover
nor John S. Fine officially ap
pointed an Educational Television
Committee which would carry on
'he work of the ad hoc JCET-P.
The University, largely
through the efforts of Dr. Mil
ton S. Eisenhower and Dr. Clar
ence FL Carpenter, had a very
active part in bringing the plans
for a state educational tele
vision system up to this point.
Th e Educational Television
Committee drew up a plan for a
state-wide system linking Pitts
burgh, Erie, University Park,
Harrisburg and Philadelphia.
However, this plan did not re
ceive any support in Harrisburg.
A bill was introduced into the
legislature but was turned down
for lack of funds.
After Fine went out of office
the Committee on Educational
Television just dissolved

A college professor warns:
College cheating is
an American disgrace!
Why is cheating an accepted
practice in many of our colleges
today? What can we do to stop
this scandalous habit? In this
week's Saturday Evening Post, a
college professor reports:
• about the ingenious ways
students cheat.
• how one college official ad
mits "1 out of 3 students cheats
rather regularly."
• why many professors know
what's going on but do noth
ing to stop it.
Be sure to read the explosive
report on our "American Dis
grace: College Cheating" in
this week's Post.
