Richard Fogarty, of Ann Arbor, Michigan, will serve as director of the Household Manage-
ment Studies Group and editor of the HMS NEWSLETTER. The group will be surveying
school administrators and students for ideas on how a program of household management
studies could be offered in such a way that any student might participate in the course, with-
out straying too far from the credit requirements of the student's particular major.
The Household Management Studies Group takes the position that any student, on any
campus in the country, should have the opportunity to study household management, with-
out having to major in home economics, and minor in law, medicine, finance, insurance,
business administration and mechanical engineering.
By adding some type of practical, everyday survival course to the traditional programs of
career training and intellectual enrichment, colleges would be providing a valuable service
that could benefit all of their students.
The Household Management Studies Group does not expect college administrations to offer
a personal development course such as this without a sufficient show of interest from the
student body, so the first step in this effort will be to suggest the program to students and
then elicit feedback:
The preliminary surveys conducted by Richard Fogarty over the last two years indicate that
at least sixy percent of all college students would like to take a household management course
if it were offered. About seventy-five percent of the students' parents say they would like
their sons and daughters to take the course. More than ninety percent of the college alumni
who have been out of school from five to fifteen years say that they wish they could have
taken the course when they were in school, and almost thirty percent of this same group say
they would enroll for the course if it were offered in the evenings at a nearby college or high
school as part of an adult continuing education program.
The Household Management Studies Group will be asking several university education or
psychology departments to design and conduct surveys that could objectively measure the
potential enrollment in this type of program. The results will be reported in the newsletter.
Assuming that students' response will support the current position of the Household Man-
agement Studies Group, the group will work toward a goal of having some type of household
management course available to all students on every American college campus with more
than one-thousand full or part-time students. The group will also be contacting the chief
executives of more than one-thousand of the country's largest coporations to find out which
companies would offer their employees tuition reimbursement for a household management
course.
As an ongoing project, the Household Management Studies Group will be developing a
model course outline that could be adapted to most college programs. This suggested outline
will be introduced in the first newsletter.
In general, the HMS NEWSLETTER will be trying to serve as a clearinghouse for ideas and
a catalyst for actioa in the interest of preparing young adults to manage their own household.

s HALPERIN maintained that - if ac-
e tually requested to do so by their in-
i- stitutiors - many faculty members
n- would give up any CIA associations
willingly. Tihe existence of rules on such
activities would also make it easierfor
students to report any attempts by their
profs or the CIA to recruit or blackmail
them.
The implementation of CIA
guidelines by campuses nationwide
would be "only the beginning" of the
agency's removal from college cam-
puses, Halperin emphasized.
"Ultimately (national) legislation is
needed which forces the CIA'to observe
the rules which Universities lay out on
this question," he said.
