Aerospace Course Stresses
Teamwork In Class Projects
Senior students in aerospace en
gineering are how participating in
a course of study that prepares
them for industrial work through
a team effort.
C. A. Rodenberger, associate
professor of aerospace engineer
ing, said Wednesday that the find
ings of Massachusetts Institute of
Technology and other schools have
shown that many engineering stu
dents, because of the stress placed
in college on individual work, find
themselves ill-prepared for the
group work necessary in modern
research. For the first time, aero
space students have been given a
term project to be done within a
group.
“We ask these students to work
as a group and come up with some
thing new,” Rodenberger explained.
“We want them to use creativity
through all that they have learned
in their studies.”
Students had their choice of
space craft or commercial aircraft,
then were divided into groups on
a competitive basis.
Those working on the commer
cial level were asked to design a
short range transport aircraft cap
able of a steep approach.

COEDS INCLUDED
Students To Mix Studies
With Globe - Circling Cruise
MIAMI—Students from colleges
all over the country will take their
studies to sea next year. A coed
group of adventurers, including un
dergraduates, graduate students
and instructors, will circle the
globe aboard the 190-foot schooner
Yankee Clipper, The air-condi
tioned ship, formerly owned by mil
lionaire George Vanderbilt, has
been modified to provide quarters
for 50 passengers.
Yankee Clipper will depart Mi
ami in January, 1964, on the 12-
month, 50,000 mile expedition to
offbeat islands and colorful ports
of the South Seas, East Indies,
Indian Ocean and tropical Atlantic.
About 35 landfalls will be made
and more than a dozen foreign
countries visited on the unique,
share-the-expense voyage now be
ing organized by Capt. Mike Burke
of Miami, owner and operator of
Windjammer Cruises, whose brig
antine Yankee recently completed
her fifth round-the-world cruise.
THE EXPEDITION’S ports-of-
call will include Easter Island,
whose stone heads have confound
ed explorers and archaeologists
for centuries . . . the island of Pit
cairn, where the descendants of the
Bounty’s mutineers still live . . .
the Galapagos, where Darwin de
veloped the basis for his theory
of evolution . . . Tahiti, with its
natural and female beauties . . .
Bali, with its aura of the Orient
. . . Zanzibar, spice island off Af
rica, where an inland safari will be
arranged for interested passengers
. . . and many other spots where
cruise ships seldom call.
Capt. Burke’s fleet of ships has
carried over 12,000 passengers dur
ing the past decade. Five of his
ships — Polynesia, Tondeleyo, Cut
ty Sark, Mandalay and Caribee —
are used for 10-day cruises in the
Caribbean and Bahamas, while the
others are employed on extended
ocean voyages. “This round-the-
world expedition is my real love,”
Burke said.
CAPT. BURKE added that Yan
kee Clipper will carry a crew of
professional seamen, but all pas
sengers who wish may stand wheel
watches and learn to tend a sheet
and splice a line. Classes in mar-
linespike seamanship and naviga
tion will be held, and the ship’s li
brary will be well stocked with
volumes on nautical lore as well as
books about countries and islands
to be visited. The ship’s comple
ment will include a marine scien
tist and a historian who will give
informal lectures illustrated by
slides and movies. A physician
will also be aboard.
