a summer observer froo 1 - i . t
believes.
David H. 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.”

College education is now worth less than it
once was 9 Carnegie Commission says in report

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

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.
