The Special Subcommittee on Education convened at 10 a.m., pursuant to call, in room 214-B, Longworth Building, Hon. Edith Green, chairman of the subcommittee, presiding. Present: Representatives Green, Brademas, Sickles, and Reid. Professional staff members present: William F. Gaul, counsel to the subcommittee; Barbara Deiss, research assistant and secretary; and Charles Radcliffe, minority counsel for education. Mrs. GREEN. The Special Subcommittee on Education will please come to order. Since this is the first meeting this session of the Congress, I would like to introduce the members of the subcommittee. To my right is Congressman Brademas of Indiana. Congressman Gibbons of Florida will be with us in a short while. Also to my right is Congressman Sickles of Maryland. To my left is Congressman Reid of New York, a new member of the committee. We are most happy to have you join this committee, Mr. Reid. Mr. Griffin, of Michigan will be here in a few moments. Congressman Quie, the ranking Republican member, is not able to be here today, but will be at the hearings for the remainder of the week. I would like to introduce the members of the staff: Bill Gaul, the counsel for the subcommittee; Barbara Deiss, a research assistant and the secretary for the special subcommittee; and Bob Cleary, a former professor at Peabody College and now one of the political science fellows who will be with us for the first few months of the year and Mr. Charles Radcliffe, minority counsel for Education. I feel a bit guilty this morning. When I was coming in my car to the Capitol, I heard from one of the newsmen that the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare was getting out of bed to be here this morning. I hope that we are not inconveniencing you, Mr. Secretary. I hope there are no ill effects from your making this special effort to be here. We are very grateful to you. May I also say, Mr. Secretary, that I am most encouraged by the very far-reaching administration recommendations embodied in the Higher Education Act of 1965. It seems to me that in title I, relating 1 to university extension and continuing education, we may find recommendations as significant in our urban society today as the Morrell Act was of 100 years ago. The Morrell Act, of course, became known as the Land Grant College Act, and today when we see countless numbers of people moving from the rural areas to the cities, and with so many problems pressing in upon our urban centers, certainly a "City Grant College Act" has a potential of doing as much as the Land Grant College Act of a century ago. I am particularly pleased also, Mr. Secretary, to see the administration recommendations to strengthen our college libraries, and secondly, to strengthen the developing institutions through the cooperative arrangements with other institutions of higher education, and the provisions for the National Teaching Fellowships. Also, for the first time, at least since I have been a member of this committee, we have strong administration backing for scholarships at the undergraduate level for the very needy students. For those who are here attending the hearings on the higher education bill, and who also are representing perhaps other groups and organizations, I want to announce that we will have hearings for the next 2 weeks. We hope that we will not always be as cramped as we seem to be in this contradictorily termed "space" room. We will have the hearings here in Washington up to Lincoln's birthday, and then we have tentatively planned field hearings in different parts of the country so that the members of the committee may have the benefit of the counsel and comments and suggestions of educators in the Midwest, Northeast, the South and in the Far West. As far as the witnesses for this particular week, we plan to hear the administration both today and tomorrow at 10 o'clock. On Wednesday we will have a panel discussing "The Role of the University in Urban Affairs," devoting most of their attention to title I. The panel members will be: Mr. John Bebout, director of the Urban Studies Center of Rutgers University; Dr. Homer Favor, director of the Urban Studies Center, Morgan State Teachers' College; Dr. Stanley Drazek, associate dean, University College, University of Maryland; and Dr. Grover L. Angel, dean of the College of General Studies of George Washington University. On Thursday, February 4, we will have another panel on title III: Dr. Broadus N. Butler, assistant to the Commissioner (Higher Education Projects), Office of Education; Dr. Newman A. Hall, executive director of the Commission on Engineering Education; Dr. Herman R. Branson, professor and head of the Department of Physics of Howard University; and Mr. Alfred T. Hill, executive secretary of the Council for the Advancement of Small Colleges. On Friday we will have a very well-informed, very interesting, and, a very provocative witness, Adm. Hyman G. Rickover. (The text of H.R. 3220 follows:) [H.R. 3220, 89th Cong., 1st sess.] A BILL To strengthen the educational resources of our colleges and universities and to provide financial assistance for students in postsecondary and higher education. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That this Act may be cited as the "Higher Education Act of 1965". TITLE I-UNIVERSITY EXTENSION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION APPROPRIATIONS AUTHORIZED SEC. 101. For the purpose of assisting the people of the United States in the solution of community problems such as housing, poverty, government, recreation, employment, youth opportunities, transportation, health, and land use by enabling the Commissioner to make grants and contracts under this title to strengthen continuing education and extension methods and teaching and the public service resources, of colleges and universities, there are authorized to be appropriated $25,000,000 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1966, and such sums for each of the four succeeding fiscal years as may be necessary for such purpose. ALLOTMENTS TO STATES SEC. 102. (a)(1) From 80 per centum of the sums appropriated pursuant to section 101 for each fiscal year, the Commissioner shall allot $25,000 each to Guam, American Samoa, and the Virgin Islands and $100,000 to each of the other States, and he shall allot to each State an amount which bears the same ratio to the remainder of such 80 per centum of such sums as the population of the State bears of the population of all States. (2) Twenty per centum of the sums appropriated pursuant to section 101 shall be reserved by the Commissioner for grants and contracts for experimental projects and for supplemental grants pursuant to section 106. (b) The amount of any State's allotment under subsection (a) for any fiscal year which the Commissioner determines will not be required for such fiscal year for carrying out the State plan (if any) approved under this title shall be available for reallotment from time to time, on such dates during such year as the Commissioner may fix, to other States in proportion to the original allotments to such States under such subsection for such year, but with such proportionate amount for any of such States being reduced to the extent it exceeds the sum the Commissioner estimates such State needs and will be able to use for such year for carrying out the State plan; and the total of such reductions shall be similarly reallotted among the States whose proportionate amounts were not so reduced. Any amount reallotted to a State under this subsection during a year from funds appropriated pursuant to section 101 shall be deemed part of its allotment under subsection (a) for such year. (c) In accordance with regulations of the Commissioner, any State may file with him a request that a specified portion of its allotment under this title be added to the allotment of another State under this title for the purpose of meeting a portion of the Federal share of the cost of providing extension or continuing education services or activities under this title. If it is found by the Commissioner that the services or activities with respect to which the request is made would meet needs of the State making the request and that use of the specified portion of such State's allotment, as requested by it, would assist in carrying out the purposes of this title, such portion of such State's allotment shall be added to the allotment of the other State under this title to be used for the purpose referred to above. (d) The population of a State and of all the States shall be determined by the Commissioner on the basis of the most recent satisfactory data available from the Department of Commerce. USES OF ALLOTTED FUNDS SEC. 103. A State's allotment under section 102 may be used, in accordance with its State plan approved under section 104(b), to provide new, expanded, or improved extension and continuing education activities and services designed to assist, particularly through new and advanced approaches, in the solution of community problems through activities and services such as |
