Williams sees more students,
‘controlled’ growth for A&M
A&M President Jack K. Williams
predicted “controlled” growth for
the university at the 6th annual
Century Club Luncheon here
Sept. 11.
Dr. Williams’ address, entitled
“A Few Modest Remarks About
the World’s Greatest University,”
included his predictions on higher
education for the next five years.
More than 500 former students
and friends of A&M packed the
west wing of Sbisa Dining Hall
for the annual dinner honoring
individuals who contributed $100
or more to the Association of
Former Students’ Annual Giving
Fund.
Dr. Williams said he expects
approximately 20,000 students
will be enrolled at A&M by 1975.
He reported the student mix
should include not less than 4,000
students in the Corps of Cadets,
4,000 graduate students and
4,000 coeds. The remaining 8,000
will be civilian undergraduate
students, he said.
student-teacher ratios, improved
teachers, better curriculums
where students are given more
choices to seek their special in
terests and an increased role of
universities in solving the prob
lems of society.
Dr. Williams said A&M’s desig
nation as a Sea Grant College
last week opens additional direc
tions for leadership in Gulf of
Mexico and Southeastern United
States marine resource research.
He stressed A&M will cooper
ate with all institutions who wish
to cooperate with A&M on marine
programs. He also outlined the
recent contracts between the uni
versity and several medical
schools.
During his talk, Dr. Williams
noted the retirement of Dr. M. T.
Harrington, former chancellor
and president of A&M who retires
this month. Former students gave
Dr. Harrington a standing ova
tion.
The president suggested junior
colleges will enroll about 75 per
cent of the freshmen and sopho
more students in the state, with
about half of the junior college
students going on to senior col
leges.
Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes and State
Sen. W. T. (Bill) Moore also
made brief remarks. Robert L.
Walker, associate executive direc
tor of the former students asso
ciation, and association president
Leslie L. Appelt of Houston serv
ed as master of ceremonies and
introduced speakers.
Former student activities ac
tually began Friday night when
the Northwest Houston A&M
Club hosted 200 former students
and guests in Houston to honor
six Distinguished Alumni.
Sen. John Tower was the guest
speaker and Dr. Williams made
the introductions.
Distinguished Alumni honored
were W. T. Doherty, J. H. Gallo
way, M. T. Halbouty, Dr. J. M.
Knox, W. C. McGee and E. J.
Mosher, all leaders in business,
industry or medicine.
Sen. Tower said A&M’s Sea
Grant designation is “richly de
served” and he predicted it would
“open a new era for Texas A&M
and Texas.”
The senator stressed through
out his travels he has never heard
Aggies called anything but
“superior” or “quality” people.
His talk emphasized keeping
faith with America and not giv
ing up its leadership role in the
world.
Dr. Williams noted Sen. Tower
was still an enlisted man in the
U. S. Navy Reserve. He bestowed
the honorary title of admiral in
the Texas Aggie Navy on the
Wichita Falls Republican.
“This means colleges like Texas
A&M are going to be left free to
grow at a controlled rate,” Dr.
Williams noted. He said it would
lead to better student-teacher re
lationships.
Phillips Petroleum awards
development t unds to A&M
Dr. Williams also predicted
students will be completing bach
elor degree requirements in three
years, mainly through longer
college calendars. Master’s de
grees will be required for special
ization in any field, he said.
Other predictions included more
programmed learning through
films and television, better

Phillips Petroleum Company
awarded a $3,000 grant to A&M
Friday from the company’s Pro
fessional Development Fund.
The sixth annual award was
presented in ceremonies at A&M
President Jack Williams’ office.
“This check reflects your faith
in this university and your inter
est in the product we are turn
ing out,” Dr. Williams said. “The
funds will be put to an excellent
purpose, the training of young
people.”
Two Phillips officials came to
A&M from Bartlesville, Okla.,
company headquarters, for the
ceremonies.
M. R. Hayes, General Services
Department manager, and James
P. Jones, corporate recruitment
and placement director, said the
company asked that both faculty
members and students benefit
professionally from the grant.
Phillips established the Pro
fessional Development Fund in
1966. In addition to grants from
this fund, A&M has received a
$3,500 fellowship in chemistry
and other support for educational
programs from Phillips.
Hayes noted the Phillips funds
support development of students
and faculty in engineering, the
physical sciences, business ad
ministration and related fields
of study which are of critical
importance to the petroleum and
petrochemical industries.
Hayes and Jones were guests
at a luncheon attended by Uni
versity deans and Department
heads from areas benefited by
the Phillips grant.
