nations, a degree is conferred.
At Punjab, Pathik was taking
an English honors course. At the
University he is studying politics
and American studies. Hie ex-
plained that his primary purpose is
not academic, but rather to learn
about and participate in campus
activities.
Pathik was quite active in poli-
tics and student activities in India.
He edited the "Voice of Students,"
a monthly intercollegiate magazine.
which, he explained, was to voice
the "opinions and aspirations of
university students."
"One of the most important
events in my life was when I par-
ticipated in the Goa Satyagrah,"
he said. Satyagrah is the technique
of passive resistance invented by'
Mahatma Gandhi.
Asks Liberation
Pathik and 71 other students
walked into the Portuguese colony
of Goa in September of 195Q to
ask for the liberation of the people
there.,
When they made their re-
quest," he said, "they beat us until
we became unconscious. Then they'
drove us to the border and threw
us out of the colony."
"I witnessed with my own eyes,"
he continued, "the atrocities per-
petrated by the Portuguese on the
harmlessnsoldiers of a peaceful
movement.",

Explaining the foreign student
leadership program, Pathik said,
"A large sum of money has been
donated by the Ford Foundation
to the USNSA to sponsor this pro-
fect under which student leaders

'Predicament'
Prof. H. C. Allen, Commonwealth
Fund Professor of American His-
tory, University of London, will
speak tomorrow at 4:15 p.m. in
Auditorium A, Angell Hall.
The lecture, "The British Pre-
dicament," is under the auspices
of the history department.
Prof. Allen is presently on a
six-month grant as visiting re-
searchprofessor at the University
of Virginia.
He is the joint editor, with C. P.
Hill, of "British Essays in Ameri-
can History," published this year
on the 350th anniversary of the
founding of Jamestown.
He is also the author of "Great
Britain and the U.S.-the History
of Anglo-4merican Relations from
1783-1952;"

from Asia, Africa and Latin Amer-
ica are invited to study and learn
about the United States." Sixteen
students. from different countries
are visiting in the United States
this year.
To qualify for the program, the
foreign student should be 18 to 22
years old, have two years left of
college, have expetience with stu-
dent activities in their own uni-
versities, be familiar with' their
country and have. above average
academic averages.
"The role of student government
in Punjab is somewhat different
than most student governments
here," he said. "The student gov-
ernment organizes all activities on
campus such as collegiate, inter-
collegiate athletic competition, and
local and intercollegiate debates,
declamation contests, poetical
symposiums and story writing
competitions, to mention a few."
Psyeholo gst
Coimended-
For Efforts
Prof. Daniel Katz of the psy-
chology department was cited this
week for "outstanding contribu-
tions in research, writing, and
teaching in the field of psychol-
ogy," by the University of Buffalo.
The honor was bestowed follow-
ing a residence hall dedication
that was part of the City of Buf-
falo's 125th anniversary celebra-
tion which highlighted Education
Day activities.
Ay former alumnus of the Uni-
versity of Buffalo, he received his
B.A. degree there in 1925. After
earning his M.A. and. Ph.D. de-
greesat Syracuse University; Katz
came to the University in 1947 as
professor of psychology and pro-
grami director of the Survey Fe-
search Center.
The citation commends Katz as,
"A brilliant and early scholar in
the challenging field of psycholo-
gy, he gave forceful .and far-
sighted leadership to departments
of psychology at Princeton Uni-
versity, Brooklyn College, and the
University of Michigan."
During World War II he was
appointed as Research Director of
the Surveys Division of the Office
of War Information. Katz has sat
on the editorial board of "Public
Opinion Quarterly" in addition to
writing several books in the field
of social psychology. He recently
edited "Public Opinion and Prop-
aganda," an information service
which prints selections of Ameri-
can scholars in public opinion
subJects.

Industry is showing "excellent
response to the University's plans
for a Dearborn Branch coopera-
tive program," University Vice
president William E. Stirton said
yesterday.
"What we've been attempting.
to do is broaden the base of in-
dustrial participation in the pro-
gram. Many inquiries have been
received and much interest has
been shown by companies of all
sizes," he said.
Under 'the program which will'
be instituted when the Dearborn
College opens up in two years,
students will al tern ate! three
months of class with three months
of on-the-job training.
Details Worked Out
Details of the program are still
being worked out, Stirton 'said,
but efforts are being made to re-
late-classes and jobs as closely as
possible.
Each job description will ii-
elude prerequisites needed, 'such
as calculus or chemistry, and thus
a student can progress in jobs as
well as classes.
Stirton said most of the stu-
dents in the cooperative program
will probably be engineers, but
similar on-the-job training pro-
grams are d e f i n i t e l y being
planned for business administra-
tion students. A comparative pro-
gram for the literature, science
and arts section of the Dearborn
branch "is still being discussed"
according to Stirton.
No Repetitive Jobs
To emphasize the use of on-
the-job training as an instruc-
tional process, the students will
not be working in repetitive pro-1
duction jobs.
"Industry seems just as inter-
ested in the educational aspects
of the program as, we are," Stir-
ton said.
