Faculty will teach Army classes
Six KU faculty members will commute to Ft. Leavenworth to conduct classes for the U.S. Army's top brass beginning Jan. 4.
The classes represent an electives program offered for the first time by the Command and General Staff College at the fort in cooperation with KU's University Extension.
The program includes classes in English taught by Richard F. Hardin, assistant professor; speech taught by William A. Conboy, fessor, and Bobby R. Patton, assistant professor; French taught by Norris J. Lacy, assistant professor; German taught by Lothar Schweder, assistant professor; and Spanish taught by Ermal Garinger, instructor.
There are 1,344 senior officers from the U.S. and 95 officers from 45 allied countries in the Command and General Staff College. The officers from the U.S. have been selected from the top 50 per cent in the country. Of the total enrolled in the college, 400 will participate in the electives program.
The officers, mostly majors and lieutenant colonels, average 35 years of age with 12 years of military service. Ninety per cent have college degrees, 28 per cent have advanced degrees, and several have doctorates.
The purpose of the Command and General Staff College is to
U.S. and foreign officers
prepare these officers to deal with top authorities in other countries. The electives program will supplement the Army's classes.
The electives program has been coordinated by J. A. Burzle, associate dean in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and Martin F. Chapman, university extension representative.
'A lot of planning'
The courses have been planned by the faculty in close cooperation with the fort. Chapman said.

"This program represents a lot of planning," Chapman said. "We have been working on it since last spring."
not at all like KU's," Chapman said. "They are much larger and more elaborately equipped."
"The books have been selected by the faculty members," he said. "They found out what the Army wanted taught and spent a lot of time going through books to find the right ones."
The speaker's platform, Chapman said, has buttons on it to control the lights, a movie projector, a slide projector, and viewing screens. The same controls are on the walls at the sides of the rooms.
