THE BATTALION
FRIDAY, APR. 2, 1976
Decreasing number of PhDs in education advise^
A doctorate program involving
training in college and in industry is
needed to halt the increasing
number of PhDs entering the educa
tion field, said Dr. Eric A. Walker
yesterday.
Walker, president emeritus of
Pennsylvania State University, ad
dressed the 24th meeting of the As
sociation of Texas Graduate Schools
in conjunction with the Centennial
Academic Assemblies sponsored by
the Texas A&M graduate college.
Plis speech was the first in a series of
assemblies dealing with “The Future
of Graduate Education.”
“We have no need to expand our
facilities for producing PhDs of the
research variety to teach in our col
leges or take up research positions in
industry or government,” said
Walker. “We are already producing
too many doctorates in the field of
education for we now have a dwindl
ing supply of students for them to
service.”
Walker said that colleges are also
faced with a declining or steady
amount of money for performing re
search, filling the pipeline for doc
toral study. “Yet, many graduates
need further training beyond the
Bachelor or Master’s degree,”
Walker added.
The first year in industry must not
be just a job. Walker said. He
suggested that the best training
would be to spend a year as an assis
tant to the vice president of a com
pany. There the student could meet
with corresponding people in the
other disciplines; not just research,
but finance, accounting and market
ing as well.
“As we move through life our edu
cational needs and wants change,”
Walker said. “They cannot be fulfil
led by something studied in four
years of college.
“Graduate education for those
who are engaged in industry and
commerce — those practitioners
who provide the public those goods
and services which the public wants
and for which it is willing to pay — is
graduate education for the entrep
reneur,” said Walker.
“People in the world of manufac
ture and commerce are better de
scribed as entrepreneurs or in
novators,” said Walker. “They do
things that are new and different.
They see a need and have bright
ideas as to how that need can be fil
led.”
Education should produce more
than skillful practitioners, he con
tinued. It should produce people
who are well-educated, useful, con
cerned and comfortable.
Walker said that the educated
should be considered “useful be
cause they have mastered the tools of
their trade, and concerned because
they understand the world in which
they live, see its assets and its
shortcomings and want to improve it
for others. They should be comforta
ble because tbey are able to see.
enjoy and contribute to the fruitsol
our history and culture.”
Walker agreed with the recom
mendation made to add to under
graduate study a fifth year leadingto
a Master’s Degree. This would lead
to a more professional group oil
businessmen in the worldofindustn
and commerce.
Not all who receive a master s de
gree spend their lives in education
and research, said Walker. Students
must be trained to combine “man
power, money and materials to pro
duce the things people want.”

Jack Ford, the President’s son,
will visit Texas A&M between April
12 and 14.
The announcement was made last
night at the organizational meeting
of the A&M chapter of Young Texans
for President Ford. Ford will run
against Ronald Reagan in the Texas
Republican primary May 1.
About a dozen students showed up
for the meeting which outlined their
immediate duty as publicizing Jack
Ford’s visit. The group will also pass
out information on President Ford in
the Memorial Student Center.
Linden Heck, youth coordinator
of the Young Texans for President
Ford, told the campaigners that only
196 persons in Brazos County voted
in the Republican primary in 1972.
“Identify the Ford voter and get him
to the polls,” said Heck.
A&M coordinator for the group is
Tom Glass.
College Station voters will elect
five city council members, a mayor,
three school board trustees and de
cide on a proposed charter revision
and a $6.4 million school bond issue
when they go to the polls tomorrow.
Voters should bring their voter
registration cards with them to the
polls. Voters who have lost their
cards or who have not yet received
them are still eligible to vote in the
election.
Under the new Texas voter re
gistration laws, even a resident who
has no registration card or who is
noton a precinct’s rolls, can still vote
by signing an affidavit swearing that
he has registered.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President
Ford is traveling to Wisconsin,
where he will tiy to w'in votes in that
state’s primary by defending his
economic, foreign and military
policies against attacks by Republi
can challenger Ronald Reagan.
Ford’s agenda indicated he plan
ned to seek urban, ethnic and farm
votes in next Tuesday’s balloting as
he campaigns in Milwaukee and
West Bend today and in Fond du Lae
and Green Bay on Saturday.
The Wisconsin primary is the first
since Ford was upset by Reagan in
the March 23 North Carolina prim
ary. Ford spokesmen say the Presi
dent will defeat the former California
governor in Wisconsin, but they are
unwilling to suggest any margin
since the ground rules for voting in
the state are somewhat unusual.
The hesitation among campaig
ners to predict a final vote margin is
based in Wisconsin primary rules
that allow Republican and Democra
tic voters in the state to cross over
and vote in one another s primary.
There is a feeling among Ford
campaign aides that conservative
Democrats who support George
Wallace might feel the Alabama gov-
