■ ' \ - . V. - , 'w:-. Assistant dean makes new students welcome Texas A&M is dedicated to making its students feel welcome. We want the individual to know he is still an individual.” Assistant Dean of Engineering Clifford H. Ransdell speaks with determination, and as a result the university started Sunday the sec ond year of a program to make transfer students more at home at this rapidly-growing institu tion. “This program is student ori ented. We want our students to know they are more than a num ber,” Ransdell declared. Started in the summer of 1969, the pre-registration conferences for transfer students not only show the student what he needs in academics, but offers assist ance in finding housing, loans, guidance and even employment opportunities for working wives. “We think it is the best pro gram to start the transition,” Ransdell said. “We have made and will make mistakes. But we know it is doing some good.” Approximately 150 new stu dents from junior and senior col leges will attend each of the three two-day programs. The first were Monday and Tuesday and the others are July 19-20 and Aug. 2-3. During the orientation session they are welcomed by Dean Rans dell and receive information on the personnel office for student wives’ jobs. Robert Logan’s stu dent loan office and Mrs. Patri cia Self’s office to assist univer sity women. Howard Perry explains student life, Col. Robert Baine gives a short program on ROTC and Corps of Cadet life, Allan Made- ley explains campus and off-cam pus housing and Don Carter gives registration information. The students secure their iden tification card pictures and reg istration cards at the Sunday meeting. The students meet with the as sistant deans of their colleges and are told the academic regula tions. Then they are sent to de partment heads for registration.

COOPER Edwin Cooper named head of admissions Edwin H. Cooper, former as sistant to the university presi dent, returns to the university administrative staff July 1 as director of admissions. Academic Vice President Hor ace R. Byers announced Cooper will succeed Dr. Oscar Dorsey, who becomes dean of professional schools at Southwest Texas State in San Marcos. “We are extremely fortunate to have a man of Mr. Cooper’s background and experience join the s t a f f,” said Dean Lloyd Heaton of Admissions and Rec ords in the Registrar’s Office. “He will be most effective as chief admissions officer to help attract quality students to the university by telling the A&M story.” A 1953 Aggie graduate. Cooper totaled 13 years of service with the university before leaving last September to join an oil company as a partner in operations over this area. He had been director of civilian student activities after four years as assistant to the late President Earl Rudder. Cooper graduated from San Marcos High School in 1949 and then earned distinguished student honors here. He was awarded a bachelor’s degree in wildlife management and has completed most of the course work for a master’s in the same field of study. He resigned as sales manager for an agricultural firm in Jacksonville to join President Rudder’s staff. Previously, he was an assistant county agent and wildlife conservation special ist with the Texas Agricultural Extension Service. A trustee of the A&M Consoli dated School System, Cooper has held a number of top positions in civic and other organizations. They include president of the Brazos County A&M Club, Cham ber of Commerce vice president and area councilman of the As sociation of Former Students. Mr. and Mrs. Cooper have five children. The family resides at 908 Pershing in College Station. Recent technological advances point to earlier implementation of the “Nuplex” concept for nu clear desalination of sea water, low-cost electricity and related activities, predicts a prominent Oak Ridge National Laboratories official. Dr. R. Philip Hammond, direc tor of ORNL’s nuclear desalina tion program and originator of the “Nuplex” concept, noted the more optimistic timetable during a visit here where a “Nuplex” research program was initiated last year. The ORNL scientist now antici- jpates implementation of some “Nuplex” developments within 10 years. Initial projections had indicated the first installations in about 20 years. As originator of the concept for interrelated enterprises based on economical nuclear-generated electricity and desalted water, Dr. Hammond was asked by officials to assess the university’s study. He said he was “impressed,” particularly with the caliber of people involved in the study and their “innovative ways” for com bining disciplines. Dr. Hammond said he knows of no other university in the na tion which is taking such a “broad-front” comprehensive ap proach to the “Nuplex” concept. He noted A&M’s research com plements work that is being done at the Oak Ridge facility. “I think we can work well to gether,” Dr. Hammond remarked. “Nuplex” is a coined word des cribing a large complex consist ing of a nuclear reactor, electri city production, water desalina tion, chemical processing and production, agriculture and as sociated activities. The campus “Nuplex” study is directed primarily toward help ing meet the state’s future water needs through nuclear desalina tion. The board of directors set a $300,000 annual budget to sup port the research project. The study was proposed by S. B. Whittenburg, board member from Amarillo. Early work in the project in volved a study of the current state of technology against the backdrop of the total problem of the nuclear-agro-industrial com plex, university officials noted. Throughout the study, nota tions have been made of particu lar areas of research and tech nology, as well as economics and management, in which the uni versity’s talents and capabilities can best be applied. The study now involves five major areas: Desalination and chemical engineering, intensified crop production and crop ecology, ■ivaste product utilization, eco nomics and systems engineering.
