System Men Leaving Soon
For Tunisian Assignment
Three new members of the A&M
University System party to Tu
nisia leave shortly for assign

ed classes on another Tunisian col

International Programs Office,
said. Ross is a veteran agricul

the Tunisian program for A&M.

later this week are Major C.
Quinn, a language instructor here
since 1960, Allison J. Abshire and
Bruno Quebedeaux Jr., who has
worked on the Louisiana State
University horticultural farm since
graduating earlier this year.
“Each of these men has a spe
cial role and without him the pro
gram will fail to function,” Ross
said.
Quinn will conduct English
courses for students at the new
agricultural college. A native of
Navasota, Quinn holds B.A. and
M.A. degrees from Stanford. He
is a veteran instructor in lan
guages.
