A Busy Summer Ahead
JUNE 1965

SOME 1,760 students are expected to participate in various Dartmouth College summer programs this year, Waldo Chamberlin, dean of summer programs, has announced.

This figure, 450 more than last summer's total, includes the students enrolled in the eight-week academic term, opening June 26, and the participants in the 18 different institutes and workshops scheduled during the summer. In addition to the 1,760 students, 90 visiting faculty members will also be on campus.

Included in the total are 440 men and women students expected for the academic term, compared with 377 last year. Current applications suggest there will be a few more men than women.

Several of the summer institutes and workshops are being held on the Darthelp to account for the increase in total visitors. These include institutes for history and biology teachers, a mathematics-English program for teachers of disadvantaged students, institutes for physicists and engineers, a short program for independent school headmasters, and music workshops for singing teachers and voice students.

The second annual Alumni College is among the programs being repeated. In its first session last August it attracted 245 alumni and wives. Approximately 300 are expected this year.

Project ABC (A Better Chance) will also have an increased enrollment this summer. Fifty-five underprivileged boys, the great majority of them Negroes, attended the 1964 session and 49 went on to independent preparatory schools as scholarship students. The Dartmouth group this year will number 65.

A group of Peace Corps trainees will again be at Dartmouth this summer, and other returnees include the Management Objectives Course for Bell Telephone executives, the Russian Language Institute, the Management Development Course for the National Association of Mutual Savings Banks, the Graduate School of Credit and Financial Management at Tuck School, and a piano teachers workshop.

Throughout the summer the Hopkins Center will offer a full and varied program for Dartmouth's third "Congregation of the Arts," bringing together eminent visiting composers and artists, a repertory theater company, a Samuel Goldwyn Series of films, concerts, gallery shows, and exhibitions.
