A&M receives money
to help hunger probleii
Texas A&M University officials
were notified Monday the institu
tion will receive more than $1 mil
lion from the U.S. Agency for Inter
national Development (AID) for in
tensified efforts to alleviate hunger
and malnutrition problems abroad.
The Title XII AID “strengthening
grant” will provide $1,040,140 over
the next five years as Texas A&M
steps up its efforts to help develop
ing countries establish more pro
ductive means for feeding their
people, said Texas A&M President
Jarvis E. Miller.
“The ultimate objective of Texas
A&M’s strengthening grant propo
sal is to develop a means whereby
the university’s human resource
skills can be harnessed toward the
adaptation and application of ag
ricultural production technology to
meet the basic, common need of
satisfying the nutritional require
ments of rural and urban poor in de
veloping countries,” Dr. Miller
said.
In developing this capability,
emphasis will be placed on the roles
women play in agricultural and rural
development and the potential of
small farmers for increasing food
production and optimizing nutri
tional levels. The results of Texas
A&M’s endeavors will be made
available to development assistance
programs, foreign officials, col
leagues and international students
seeking to find ways by which the
international problems of hunger
and malnutrition can best be solved.
Texas A&M currently has seven
AID contracts totaling more than $3
million for programs in Guatemala,
Kenya, Tanzania, Colombia, Sri
Lanka, Syria and Uruguay.
Earlier this year, the university
established a separate major divi
sion within the university for inter
national affairs and named Dr. T. R.
Greathouse to head it with the rank
of vice president. Dr. Morris E.
Bloodworth subsequently was
named director of internaitonal pro
grams wiht reponsibility for de
velopment and implementation of
in-country projects and appointed
Dr. P. Wayne Gosnell director of
international severice with primary
duties involving assistance to inte-
rantional personnel on campus.
‘We believe Texas A&M has
unique contributions to make in the
international area, ’ Dr. Miller said,
“and these contributions can
enhance the total program of the
