Allen, A&M student of Irving, spent three months in Italy and other Western Euro pean countries through a techni cal student exchange program. “U. S. students find it easier to go over than stay here,” Allen commented. “In Europe they can live on $3 or $4 a day. There are no summer jobs in the U. S. for them.” With rucksacks and sleeping bags, they wander around in droves, the A&M senior aerospace engineering major described. overrunning Europe, A&M sxudent says nig ir chey sleep on the rcans.vhv, in parks or gang up in front of cathedrals. I can see why Europeans don't like Ameri cans. For one thing, they are getting an inaccurate picture of us,” Allen said. Another problem, he went on, is drugs. Most European coun tries except Holland, have stren uous restrictions on drug use. A student rail pass provides means of getting to Amsterdam for marijuana or heroin. “I met a lot of nice American kids and, for the first time, some real hippies,” remarked Allen, an Air Force ROTC cadet who will probably go to Japan as a weath er officer after graduation next spring. “They are stuck in Eu rope, just wandering around not knowing what lies ahead. One thing they know for sure. If they've got the habit, it can’t be supported here in the U.S. as easily as there.” Allen worked in aircraft struc tures computer programming for Aeronautica Macchi, an Italian government-owned plant at Vare se. The firm builds a jet attack aircraft similar to the U. S. F80 and a light-weight observation airplane. “My last two weeks there was the highlight of the whole sum mer,” he commented. An A-aver- age student at A&M and member of Squadron 10 ii^ the Corps of Cadets, Allen was placed with the firm through the International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experi ence (IAESTE). Pay was mini mal but so was room and board ($125 for two months at Varese). Allen swung loans for his IA- ESTE participation, which he be lieves is worth any student’s con sideration. “The guys at the aircraft plant and I became very good friends,” he said. Rapport led to excep tional understanding between them. He also made a three-week tour, touching in Zurich, Switzer land; Paris, West and East Ber lin, Brussels, Belgium; Copen hagen, Sweden, Austria and, on the way home, London. Weekends of his work experience were spent at Rome, Milano, Pisa and Nice and Grenoble, France. The 1968 Irving High School graduate had four years f rench and studied Italian on his own, “to where I could make small talk and have something to build on in Italy.” His last two summers with LTV in Dallas especially suited Allen’s Macchi work. “The experience is very defi nitely worthwhile, even if a stu dent has to go way in the hole on a big loan,” he evaluated. “Other students may think it’s playing around, but I was learn ing something every minute.” ALLEN Oldsmobile Cadillac SALES - SERVICE “Where satisfaction is standard equipment” 2401 Texas Ave. 823-8002 College education is now worth less than it once was 9 Carnegie Commission says in report AGGIE PLAQUES Plaster Accessories Finished - Unfinished Working- Area Free Instructions GIFT - A - RAMA Redmond Terrace College .Station WASHINGTON (A»)_A college education isn’t worth as much in dollars as it once was, a new report claims, but it definitely leads to the good life. College graduates do make more money, and their jobs are more comfortable, says a study for the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education. What’s more, they are more likely to be Republicans, although their political philosophies are decidedly liberal. They read more, know more, vote more and take a greater part in community ac tivities. "The college experience ap pears more likely than not to make students more open-minded and liberal, less concerned with material possessions, more con cerned with aesthetic and cultural values, more relativistic and less moralistic, but more integrated, rational and consistent,” the re port says. “Students tend to lessen in their adherence to traditional val ues and traditional behaviors,” the report adds. “They become less authoritarian although this may be related to the social cli mate at the time of their educa tion. They become more aware of themselves and of interpersonal relationships and show a greater readiness to express their emo tions.” Dr. Clark Kerr, chairman of the commission, said at a news conference Tuesday the study was undertaken to answer ques tions about whether college train ing is generally worth the time, effort and money required. The study was conducted by the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. The report, “A Degree and What Else ? The Correlates and Con sequences of a College Educa tion,” will be published by Mc Graw-Hill later this month. In a foreword to the published report, Kerr said people who go to college tend to be: —More satisfied with their jobs. —More highly paid and less subject to unemployment. —More thoughtful and delib erate in their consumer expendi tures. —More likely to vote and to BATTALION CLASSIFIED WANT AD RATES 6* per word al day Minimum charge—76<f Classified Displn> One day . - . - . - -. 4d per word each addition lassificd Display $1.00 per column inch each insertion WORK WANTED Typing perienced. near campus. 846-8966.

The report concludes that as a U. S. suspends aid to Pakistan WASHINGTON (IP) — The Senate Foregn Relations Com mittee approved Tuesday the House-voted suspension of U.S. aid to Pakistan. The provision provides that all U.S. economic, military and other aid, including sales of military equipment and agricultural com modities, be stopped until the Pakistani government cooperates in stabilizing the situation in East Pakistan and permits ref ugees to return. Aid would be resumed when President Nixon certified to Con gress that those actions had taken place. The House action was an cut- growth of the Pakistani govern ment’s action in sending troops into East Pakistan to put down a revolt. The Senate committee rejected 7 to 6 an amendment by Sen. Frank Church, D.-Idaho, that would have delayed resumption of aid for 60 days after the President’s report. It also would have given either house of Con gress the power to keep the suspension in effect. The action was taken as the Foreign Relations Committee con tinued voting in closed session on the house-passed, two-year for eign aid authorization bill. Final committee action may come later this week, gearing the measure for full Senate consid eration next week. Cannon article inserted in ‘Record’ An article dealing with Ameri can bilingual problems, by Dr. Garland Cannon of A&M, has been inserted in the “Congres sional Record” in Washington, D. C. The article, “Bilingual Prob lems and Developments in the U. S.,” was first published in the May, 1971, “Publications of the Modern Language Association.” It went into the Sept. 27 official record of Congress. Cannon is professor of English. general rule “every year of high er education results in added im pact and benefit.” It says also the impact is cu mulative over generations, with sons and daughters of parents who have gone to college taking on more of the college influence than their classmates whose par ents did not make it to college. One of the more surprising findings is that higher educa tion as an investment—in terms of how much it will increase a person’s earning power—is gen erally overrated. “ A parent could do as well with a stock invest ment,” Kerr said.
