The Experiment in International
Living stresses cultural learning by
mabling the student to live with a
breign family. In 1AESTE, a stu-
lent works toward technical major
foreign country. Operation
Crossroads Africa, which resembles
he Peace Corps, chooses 15 Ameri-
:an students to work in Africa each
students were financed last year.
Stark said.
The travel loan program origi
nated in 1962. James Ray, an A&M
student, could not afford to partici
pate in the Operation Crossroads
America program. A former stu
dent, John Lindsey, financed his
trip. When Ray paid Lindsey back
after joining the Air Force, he also
presented $100 to A&M to start the
fund, Stark said.
The travel loan program is funded
by gifts from A&M graduates who
have used the loan program. It is
also funded by alumni contributions
and profits from “We’ve Never
Been Licked,” a movie filmed at
A&M during World War II.
Losses to the fund are small.
Even though there are no legal way
to force graduates to pay the fond
back, Stark said, only six people
have not done so.

divide this amount to help as many
people as possible, said J. Wayne
Stark, MSC Director.
The 16-year program has helped
approximately 70 students finance
their trips overseas. Five of these
