The first question is not new to the Penn State campus, for thousands who have gone before you have asked the same. It all started in 1862 when Con gress passed the Land Grant Act which provided monetary aid to colleges and universities. In 1863 Penn State was established as the land-grant college of Pennsyl vania and under this act was re quired to provide military instruc tion. In 1865, the administration car ried its obligation one step fur ther and made military instruction compulsory for all male students. This is why you must take ROTC. In recent years the merits of compulsory military education have been examined many times. At present, the SGA Commit tee on ROTC is examining the possibility of eliminating the pro gram. It also is considering the possibility of requesting the elim ination of tire program, It also is considering the possibility of sub stituting in its place the training program for President Kennedy’s Peace Corps. In addition, last spring, the U.S. Air Force introduced a bill in Congress to eliminate the compulsory Air Force pro gram and replace it with an officer education program. Under this program, a competi tive examination would be used to select participants. Those se lected would be given yearly scholarships of $2200. Military training would be reserved for summer camp and education would be stressed during the school year. This would practically force the Army to discontinue its compul sory program. It could not handle the number of students which would be left by the discontinu ation of the Air Force program, Duane Alexander, chairman of the Welcome Freshmen 301 W.

The purpose of this group is to re-evaluate the total aspects of the officer education program, he explained. However, he added, no definite date has been set for the completion of the group’s study. Thus, the future of ROTC is undecided, so march cheerfully and look forward to the day YOU can make the choice. Phone AD 7-7629
