"Continuous News Service- Silnce 1 88 1"

By Mike McNameeThe MIT faculty Wednesday

took the work of seven months'study by the Ad Hoc Committeeon International InstitutionalCommitments and used it to setup another ad hoc committeefor another year of study.

By a near-unanimous vote,the faculty overrode the Ad HocCommittee's proposal for astanding committee with broadpowers to investigate and reviewinternational research, edu-cation. and service agreements.substituteng a temporary groupwith curtailed authority to re-view projects for a year beforereporting again to the faculty.

The faculty also heard Chan-cellor Paul E. Gray's annual fallreport on the MIT budget and adiscussion of masters degreeprograms in the School ofArchitecture in a monthlymeeting marked with the smallagendas and low attendancetypical of fall mreetings.

The vote to create a new AdHoc Commrittee on InternationalInstitutional (C ommitmentsbroughit an end to the seven-month task of the old groupunder chairman ProfessorCharles Kindelberger. Thisgroup, born in the debate overthe Iranian nuclear engineeringprogram last spring, attemptedto devise a permanent procedurefor dealing with MIT's foreignprograms.

Substitution of another studygroup for the proposed standingcommittee came after Kindel-berger, following the form of hisreport at the last facultymeeting, offered a motion todeal with the educational aspectsof international programs. Thismotion, which Kindlebergertermed "a slight expression ofdispleasure with the adminis-tration" for its handling of theIranian program, asked that thefaculty "remind its rnembers andthe administration of the respon-sibilities of the Committee onGraduate Student - Policy" indealing with graduate degreeprograms. The motion passed ona voice vote with no discussion.

Kindleberger then offered hissecond motion establishing astanding Committee on Inter-national Institutional Commit-ments. The motion providedthat "Initiators - whether

faculty or administration - ofprojects involving internationalcontractual commitments byhIT... should notify" thenine-member committee. Thecommittee "shall review suchprojects and may inform theinitiators... of its views res-pecting the appropriateness ofthe proposed commitments.''

Kindleberger's motion wasopposed. however, by ProfessorEugene Skolnikoff. director ofthe (Center for InternationalStudies, who offered a substitutecharge for the standingcommittee. Skolnikoff's charge"urged" the administration to"keep the commnittee informedof prospective commitments,"

Seenatfe cuts

and provided for periodic reveiwof "the scale and nature ofMIT's international'--contractualcommitments" by the group.

"For the first ime (in theKindleberger proposal), thefaculty is creating a standingcommittee to judge politicalaspects of research and pro-grams," Skolnikoff said. "Thequestion of just what is 'appro-priate' suddenly becomescrucial. I'm very concerned atseeing a faculty comnlttee'sconsiderations being based onpolitical grounds."

Although discussion ofwording of the two proposalsoccupied almost an hour. Skolni-

the $112 billion defense budgetbill with an 87-7 vote. The billmust now go to a House-Senateconference committee, wherethe FCRC cuts will be one ofmany differences between thetwo houses: budgets that mustbe resolved.

The cut in the $285 millionFCRC funds for July,. 1975through September, 1966, isaimed at "soft studies andanalyses," according to DougAllen, research and developmentexpert for the Senate DefenseAppropriations Committee."Many of the Senators looked atthe studies being done by Randand the Naval Center (CNA) andsaw that they could be done aswell - and cheaper - by thePentagon itself," he explained."It doesn't seem proper to con-tract them out."

The appropriations bill's lan-guage does say that the cuts areaimed at reducing duplication.But the cuts, if passed, are goingto be made by several processes,and physical research centersmight suffer along with thinktanks.

"If it goes through as written,and if the cuts are made acrossthe board, pro rata on eachFCRC," Gray said, "and if theyare applied to personnel" -which makes up more than halfof Lincoln's defense expendi-tures - "the effect on our bud-

Pique over the controversialactivities of "think tanks" likethe Rand Corporation and theCenter for Naval Analyses hasled the Senate to cut $26.5million from the funds expectedto go to nine Federal ResearchContract Centers (FCRCs).

Although the Senate'sbudget-cutting language is'clear-ly aimed at reducing "overlap"between policy studies made inthe think tanks and in the Penta-gon itself, the cuts could haveserious effects on physical re-search done for the-'military atLincoln and the MITRE Cor-poration of Bedford.

And MIT officials are con-cerned. Chancellor Paul E. Gray'54 says he and other administra-tors have been in contact "witheveryone in the House andSenate who could possibly helpus" in stopping the budgetmoves which might meanJanuary pink slips for 40 percefntof Lincoln's employees.

The Food Services lost almost -as much last year from extra-ordinary thefts. John McNeil,Manager of the Student CenterFood Services, said that Lobdelllost two cash registers valued at$3600 each and a meat slicerworth $750. Although McNeiland the other managers aroundcampus are worried about thesilverware and crockery drain -Walker Manager Guy Guidonerecently ordered $3600 worth ofsuch items - McNeil is especially-concerned about larger thefts.

McNeil believes the securityof the Student Center could beimproved. "If people wereforced at certain hours of thenight to enter through the frontdoor, I think it would be betterfor the whole building, not justfor food services." According toCampus Police Chief JamesOlivieri, the Center has threeentrances and five exits. McNeilbelieves that thieves can slip in-in and out of side doors without

student center is littered withLobdell trays and plates, andsome fraternities have entireservices of MIT Food Servicesilverware. But the constantdrain of silverware and china stillputs a very small dent in FoodServices' budget.

Although the managers ofFood Service operations aroundcampus report steady losses ofevery item, Director of FoodServices S. Edward Leonardordered less than $7,000 worthof silverware, china, and glass-ware last year. According toLeonard, that sum amounts toabout 1.3 per cent of Food.Service's operating budget from1974-75, a fraction similar tothe average at other schools of 1to 1.5 percent.

Although the costs are rela-tively small, the sheer nurmbersare staggering; Food Services lastyear ordered' 6,001 dozen tea-spoons, the largest part of asilverware order that totalled$3,400 for 6,685 dozen pieces.Food Services also ordered 486

In another example, thefrequency-fatality curve of 100 nuclear reactors,plotted against that of natural events, shows thatmeteorite risk closely approximates that of nuclearrisk.

"No major industry can be operated at the zerorisk rate," Rasmussen explained. "You take yourchances walking across the street.'" As there havebeen no significant releases of radioactivity fromany US reactors, the risks in WASH 1400 had beenestimated, rather than measured directly. 'Thisemploys reliability assessment, In which mnietho-dology can predict probability.

The dividing line of the nuclear safety factionsseems to be the probability prediction, and theacceptance of those risks. As Rasmussen said, "amajority of those who are in a position to evaluatethe situation say that reactors are safe." Thereport was not completely satisfied with everything

"Nuclear reactor risks are small, relative to risksin society today, and that risk is acceptable," saysProfessor Norman C. Rasmussen, head of the MITNuclear Engineering Department and director ofthe WASH 1400 report. The report states that"the results . . . suggest that the risk to the publicfrom potential accidents in nuclear power plantsare comparati vely small."

WASH 1400, which has become a majorsupport for the nuclear industry's safety darns,said that the risk of operating nuclear reactors hasbeen predicted as "no larger, and in many casesmuch smaller than (that) of non-nuclear acci-dents." and that "previous studies . . . deliberatelymaximized the estimate of these consequences."The new WASH 1400 was originally sponsored bythe Atomic Energy Commission (AFEC) andcompleted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission(NR(C).

Risk, as defined in WASH 1400, involves boththe lkelihood and consequences of an event. The-

Letters to 'fhoe TecAdmissions Efforts

To the Editors:Phil Hampton's Black Side

articles in The Tech have high-lighted the fact that the numberof entering minority under-raduates over the past 5 years

has slipped froi t-he highs of190 9 and 1970. This phienom-enon has occurred at other

- universities to greater or lessextent in this same time period.There is indeed a problem.

He also stated that both theBSU and the Admissions Office"profess the same goal - toincrease the number of minoritystudents in the MIT conim-munitv." The statement of conim-mitment comes not only fromthis office but from the seniorofficers of the Institute.

He has heard me say that inthe next few years the numberof MIT qualified (prepared)minority students is limited andwill remain limited until majorchanges take place in thesecondary schools across thiscountry. The short term prob-lem for a selective college is toattract the maximum number ofthe qualified students. For thelonger term we must search forways to impact on young menand women now in the 8th and9th grades so that they will bequalified upon graudation fromhigh school.

If I read his commentscorrectly, we do have differencesof opinion about the operationof an admission office, be itstaffing or the most effectivemethods to get- the most ap-plicants from a limited pool ofminority high-school graduates.

For the past years, MIT hasexperimented with a broad rangeof recruiting techniques in aneffort to find the most effective.Those that have worked arebeing intensified, those that havenot worked have been dropped.This year's use of the CEEBSearch List with regular iailings

to potentially qualified minoritystudents (4600), a letter to theirparents and a variety of morepersonal follow-ups is as well-focused an effort as has beenmade'at anytime.'

At all tinmes our selectionprocess has identified out-standing individuals with strongbackgrounds in nlath andscience. In situations wherepotential can be recognized, weseek to identify those minorityand non-minority students whocan benefit by the experiencesavailable at MIT and to offerthem admission. To offer ad-mission to unqualified studentswould be a mistake for theInstitute and a tragedy, for thepersons involved.

The search for a new staffmember (Assistant Director ofAdmissions) has involved con-tacts with minority oriented or-ganizations such as NSSFNS andABC which work across thecountry, efforts by the office ofSpecial Assistant for MinorityAffairs. discussions with t he Ad-missions Offices in other uni-versities, in addition to the MITPersonnel Office's regular con-tacts. Over twenty five personshave been interviewed andseemingly countless resumesreviewed. The initial interview-ing was conducted primarily bymyself but included minorityand non-minority staff members.The five finalists have talkedwith students and staff.

Over the years the Admis-sions Office has found veryvaluable the suggestions and thevolunteered efforts of MITstudents (minority and non-minority), the faculty and thestaff of the Institute as we havesought to attract, to Cambridge,the best high school students. Ihope this will continue.

IThe faculty Sotes a raud

Th e faculty suites ci fraudBy Michael McNamee

The faculty's gutting of thework of the Ad Hoc Committeeon International InstitutionaiCommitments at Wednesday'smeeting was at the very least aconsiderable waste of time.C(omparison of the debate lastspring, when the Iranian nuclearengineering program first madethe faculty aware of the need fora look at foreign programs, andthe discussion this week'showsthat the new ad hoc committeethe faculty has established couldhave been set up seven monthsago.

Unfortunately. there's a lotmore wrong with the faculty'sdecision than just the wasteful-ness. For had the faculty createdas worthless, powerless a body asthe new ad hoc committee lastspring when interest in the"foreign policy" issue was high,its act would have been regarded-and rightly so - as a victoryfor those who wanted the furorto go away so the Institutewouldn't ever. give a secondthought to its dealings with dic-tators, corrupt regimes, andshady governments.

It's hard for anyone who satthrough the interminablemeetings last spring to believethat MIT faculty members couldso quickly forget the issues andquestions raised in the wake ofthe Iran program. It would seemimpossible that the same facultywhich grew so incensed over thatprogram would be so willing tocreate a group powerless to pre-vent the abuses they saw there.Incredibly, the faculty has setthe idea of review and countrolof foreign programs back, notforward, after seven months ofwork aimed at increasing thatcontrol.

The proposal the facultyadopted substituted a temporarygroup for a permanent one. In-stead of saying the administra-tion and faculty initiators"should notify" the committee- or "shall notify," as was origi-nally proposed - of prospectiveco mmitments, the substitutesays the administration "isurged" to let the committeeknow what's going on -- thus atone stroke absolving facultymembers of any responsibility tonotify the group and curbing thelikelihood of the Administrationdoing so for them. Instead of amandatory role for the comnmit-tee in every proposal of sub-stance, we have a groupe that"shall stand ready on request toconsult" with the people whohave the greatest stake in im-mediate approval - and minimaldiscussion - of a potentiallycontroversial program.

To pretend that the faculty

has taken meaningful action todeal with the problems ofinternational commitments is acheap fraud and a deception. Toassume that. the interests of thewhole community have beenprotected in that minor-leaguedebating society called thefaculty meeting is to make amockery of all ideas of represen-tation and fair discussion for thenon-faculty portion of theInstitute.

The proponents of the theweak committee have theirreasons, of course. With thehubbub over the Iranian pro-gram and, later, the proposedSaudi Arabian pact, the facultyis sensitized to the issues, theysay .- no faculty member ordepartment would hesitate tobring forward a proposal whichthreatened to be controversial orembarrassing.' They don.'t ex-

plain, of course, why the Iranianprogram wasn't brought forwardto any of the faculty committeeswhich might have had power' toreview it - the Committee onGraduate School Policy, to nameone - or why it took investi-gative reporting by The Tech toreveal that pro-gram. Nor do theyexplain why members of theNuclear Engineering Department- where the proposal wasdiscussed for weeks - were stillexpressing shock that anyonewould consider their plans ":con-troversial" months after thestorm broke.

Most damning ot all, theydon't -- can't - explain whyweeks after the Iranian debate,at a time when 'sensitivity"should have been at its highest,it took a report in The NewYork Times to reveal the

Saudi talks where the explosivequestion of anti-Semetic discrim-ination was at issue.-Or whyafter all that "sensitizing," Presi-dent Wiesner was as close-mouthed as ever, refusing torelease any documents associ-ated with the talks.

Professor Skolnikoff, whoproposed the weakened commit-tee, was also concerned aboutthe "implied endorsement" ofprograms that would result whena committee required to reviewall proposals slips up and letssome through without thoroughstudy. Such an overworked com-mittee, he suggests, would beworse than nothing at all. As apolitical scientist, Skolnikoffshould have been aware of thebroad "implied endorsement"implicit in establishing a mecha-nism - even a.-powerless, by-passed mechanism - to deal

with' an issue. Unfortunately,having given the. committee's"implied endorsement" to theidea that MIT is in fact reviewinginternational .programs'Skolnikoff is unwilling to givethat committee the least chanceof substantiating its "approval"in any cases except those set upon a, silver platter by theadministration.

The final argument, ofcourse, is the faculty's abhor-rance of politics. Beware ofputting a group whose delibera-'tions might be affected bypolitifcal considerations "in the'loop" of decision-making onresearch, education and service,Skolnikoff warns,. for in thatyou will surely trespass on themost inviolate of faculty privi--leges - the righ to sell research

to the highest bidder. bar none.Leave aside the basic politicalquestion of -why MIT is workingfor Shlahs and Kings. CIAs andDoDs, who have money andpower, and not for oppositiongroups and out-of-power (andpossibly imprisoned) politicians,who have none: leave aside thefact that half - three-quarters -otf the members of Skolnikoff'sdepartment are up to their necksin politics, professionally andpersonnally, and love it; leaveaside the whole political struc-ture that determines who will bepowerful in the research andacademic worlds, who will be inand who out, and why Skolni-koff, for example, can getcontracts that other people can't- leave all those questions aside,and just address the idea of whyPresident Wiesner was applaudedand praised when he applied apurely political criterion ondiscrimination to the Saudi con-tract - and lost it. Explain that,in a faculty that abhors politics.

It's bad enough that there areno real reasons for weakeningthis committee, for gutting itspowers. What-is worse - crimi-nal, in the context of recenthistory - is that proponents ofless oversight and less reviewcan't even assure us that we haveany hope of better action fromindividual faculty in the future.Indeed,- the evidence is allagainst it - there was no feelingevident among the Institute'snuclear engineers, even after allthe discussion, that they wouldhave handled the Iran programany differently. And when Iinterviewed Professor WilliamSeifert, who worked for fiveyears on a contract with Saudi

Arabia, after the 'talks fellthrough, it certainly did notseem that the victory of theInstitute's moral - and political- principle compensated him forthe loss of his effort.

What went wrong'? Well, firstof all, the faculty's pique andwounded feelings at being leftout of the Iran program - aprogrami that had to be discov-ered by students, revealed bystudents, and first attacked bystudents - have worn off. Withthem have gone the enragedarguments about "irregularities"and "poor procedures;" in theirplace has come a realization thatmoves to restrict someone.else'swork will put a damper on theirselling of themselves.

And if the faculty presenthad any trouble seeing whichside their bread was buttered on.the administration was ready tohelp. Wiesner, who has hardlybeen known for impartial, even-handed chairing of past meet-,ings, was even more blatant thanusual in pointing- out that hedidn't want anything that mighttie his hands. And ChancellorPaul Gray provided the usefulservice, through his budget talkearlier, of making the neccessityof more and bigger contractsclear - just as he -did last springwhen, just before the facultyvoted on whether to repudiatethe Iran program, he got up to

1 tell them how any move on thiscontract would affect other

s contracts - including, of course,those of the members voting.

I The passage of time has1 allowed the faculty to blur overI the points made last spring.1 One faculty member went so fare as to say-that the communityi "had asked" for procedure to

allow "occasional'"selected programs,course, looking at

review ofwithout, ofeverythirg.

But if you define the com-munity as I define it, allow it toinclude a few people who aren'thung up in their own work andwho are interested in what MITas an' institution is up to, youwill realize that that isn't whatthe community asked for lastspring. The community was

-instead looking -- mostly withoutrage - on the Iran program.It was asking for some way,some measures, to ensure thatsuch a program wouldn't reachsuch a state with so little dis-cussion ever again. tven if itIneant looking at every proposal.every contract, every suggestion.

What is the tfinal outomne of'the faculty's action?' Besidesgutting the colmmittee, the facul-ty has put off serious considera-tion of pernlanent nmeasures todeal with the abu.ses revealed in)_March. 1975. to at least Noveim-ber. 197(6. Wittingly or not, thefaculty has provided tfor discus-Sion of such measures to comewhen menmory of the mllajorabuses will have fadiled into thewarm glow that eventually en-wraps the most traumatic events

even. for example. the "Timeot lrouble" anti-war actions andiprotests. And like tile issuesraised in those turbulent times.which were forgotten shuntedaside whenever they arose with-out the accompanying violence.and eventually lost, the ques-tions of international commit-nlents will become vapors blownaway by the rhetoric of "facultytfreedon"' -- all in the interestsotf the highest bidder.

Worsh Up to $10,000Intlere~stUou?

An Opportuimty_ fr 45HlS -ly Quaifed $ophoneo

If you're the kind of person we're lookingfor, you've already started to think about whatyou'd like to do after graduation.

If a scholarship leading to a career as anOfficer inl the U.S. Navy .appeals to you, you'll findthis message well worth reading.

Two-Year r1 S&lrsifp$sThe opportunity is very attractive. If you're

selected, we'll provide full tuition during yourJunior and Senior years, pay for your books andeducational fees, and give you $100 a month for10 months each year to help cover your livingexpenses.

There are two different programs you canapply for. The first is the Nuclear PropulsionCandidate Scholarship Program (NPCS). Toqualify, you ihust have one semester each ofcalculus and physics (or two semesters ofcalculus) and have a B-minus average or better.It is open to men only.

The other progiam is the Two-year NROTCScholarship Prog-ram. The only difference in thequalifications is that you must have a C average(2 . 3 out of 4.0) or better: It is open to men andw\omen.

For both prog~rams, you'll need to pass Navyqualification tests. And, quite frianldy, it xwill helpif your major is math, physical science, orengineering.

The Currculum ..After you're accepted, you begin with six-

w'eeks of training next summer at the NavalScience Institute at Newport, R.I. During yourfinal two years of college, you take severalrequired courses in math, physics, and NavalScience. You also go on a summer cruise prior toyour Senior year. (Of course, you're paid for allyour sullmer duty.)

A Challeg JobUpon graduation, you are commissioned as

an Officer in the U.S. Navy. And from then onyour career can take you anywhere in the world,in a variety of fulfilling jobs.

Those who apply for the NPCS ProgTamhave a particular challenge ahead of them: TheNavy's Nuclear Power ProgTam. Not everyonewho applies makes it: the men in charge ofmore than two thirds of our country's nuclearreactors must be a very special breed. Finalacceptance into the Navy's Nuclear PowerProgram is determined during your Senior yearafter an interview in Washington with theDirector, Division of Naval Reactors.

A two-year scholarship worth up to $10,000.A unique opportunity to serve as an Officer in theU.S. Navy. You'll want to act now. The deadlinefor acceptance is MIay., 1976- and once thequotas are filled, you'll have lost your chance toearn yourself a scholarship.

If you think you've got what it takes toqualify, fill out and mail the coupon beloxw, contacteither your local Naval Recruiting District or theProfessor of Naval Science on your campus, orcall 800-841-8000, toll-free, anytime.

Lincoln watching budgetwith'eye to job loses

(Con tin ued fromn page I geting will be staggering."

The effects will be multipliedby the fact that the cuts areretroactive to July 1. Consider-ing the Senate's delay in gettinga defense appropriation bill, theweeks or even months whichmight pass before House andSenate agree on a final defensebudget, and the-notice Lincoln isrequired to give laid-off em-pioyees, it may be March orApril before personnel cuts willbe made. And since the Labshave been .spending moneywhich they expected to receivesince July, each week of delaymultiplies the effect of the cutson the Labs.

"There is -some talk of acompromise to spread out theeffects so they don't have to betaken all at once," Gray toldThe Tech. "But these items are,in view of the whole militarybudget, so close to the decimalpoint that it's hard to interestthe average congressman in thesethings."

M assachusetts congressmen,however, are taking serious in-terest. Representative PaulTsongas, who said he was toldthe -budget cuts might mean lossof 1000 jobs in his Bedford-Lexington district, called thecuts -"an economic nightmare."

And Senator Edward Brooke hasbeen involved in strategy ses-sions to -stop the cuts in House-Senate conference.

"We didn't make an effort tostop the cuts when the bill wason the floor," a Brooke aideexplained.' "There was a deci-sion, instead, to concentrate onconference committee wh'ere wehave a better chance to deal withthe' cuts that we're interestedin."

Brooke doesn't expect tofully stop the cuts, however."We aren't going to end up Witheverything - we just hope to endup in a better position thanwe're in," the aide explained.The "better position" Brookehopes for, he said', is a way ofslowing down the cuts andeasing the effects over two orthree years rather than havingthem hit all at once. "We'reworking out some kind of under-standing," Allen agreed.

With the Senate completionof the budget bill Tuesday, theconference committee is expec-ted to convene after the Thanks-giving recess early in December.If the committee can get a re-port that will satisfy both houseswithout too much struggle t hefate of the FCRC budget mightbe settled before Christmas.

New England schools domi-nated the regatta, taking the topfive spots. Harvard won thetrophy with 91 _points, followedby Tufts (109), URI (i 24), MIT( 131), and Dartmouth ( 143).

By Glenn BrownsteinThey call it The Game up here. Once in a while, like this year,

it's for the Ivy League championship, but most of the time itdoesn't matter if the game is a battle between first place teams orfifth place teams. Tomorrow there may be as many as 70,000people in Yale Bowl to see it.

in the Midwest, tomorrow's Ohio State-Michigan footballgame is treated with the same kind of devotion as NewEnglanders treat the Harvard-Yale showdown. Almost every yearit seems the Big Ten title comes down to this final game. Lastyear two Ohio State students put an ad in the campus newspaperoffering to sell two choice seats for $10,000 (that's right, tenthousand dollars). As the highest offer they got was a mere$3000, they decided to go the game instead.

And what about USC-UCLA, or Oklahoma-Nebraska, orTexas-Texas A&M, or even Williams-Amherst? Why does footballproduce more than its share of great college rivalries?

My guess is that it's the nature of football more than anythingelse, the spectacle of teams from two different schools battlingfor glory on the field of honor, or something like that.

That's not my point, though. What I'm saying is that almostevery school in the country has a "traditional" rivalry with someother school, and not necessarily in football. Take BostonUniversity-Boston College in hockey, or North Carolina-NorthCarolina State in basketball, or Maryland-Johns Hopkins inlacrosse.

I may be missing something obvious, but can anyone tell meabout a current long-time rivalry between MIT and anotherschool in any sport; I can think of MIT-Brandeis recently inbasketball, or, even more recently, MIT-Eastern Nazarene inwomen's volleyball, but that's about all.

Don't get me wrong. MIT doesn't need a football team and allthe headaches involved with running a very expensive program. Itmay be the philosophy of MIT athletics that precludes a chanceof any real rivalry, except maybe a desire to knock off Harvardonce in a while, although I seriously doubt if Harvard treats thegames the same way we do.

They call Harvard-Yale The Game up here. We don't have a"Game" at MIT, but we also don't have athletic scholarships, $5basketball tickets, or only six varsity sports because footballdepletes the athletic budget so much. There's a basic choice thathas to be made, and there's still SAE-LCA in football, orBaker-LCA in hockey or basketball ...

Dinghies. Due to technologicaladvances, the new dinghies willbe lighter, yet stronger than theold Tech Dinghies.
