The project, according to Riedel's definition, is training for Latin American teachers. The purpose of the project is to show these teachers to train people in trades and professions that were vital to the development of their profession.
THE SIX LATIN merican countries involved in the AID project are Guatemala, Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica, and Panama.
Ridgway said these countries go through an intensive planning period every four or five years to decide how many people are needed in each profession. The countries meet the countries meet their needs.
Ridgway said the project now has one full time person, John Helwig, who received his
doctorate at KU three years ago, in El Salvador.
In addition to Hewlig, faculty members are sent periodically to the countries to offer short term technical assistance.
In the past seven months, four faculty members have spent several weeks in Latin America. Ivan Barrientos, associate professor of education, and a graduate student from Guatemala City in January helping with a new curriculum planning office.
RICHARD HATLEY, assistant professor of education, spent part of last summer in Nicaragua helping to develop a new budgetary system for the country. He also made a presentation at a seminar on the wise use of scarce educational resources.
Roger Kroth, assistant professor of education, worked with students in the Department for Habilitation and the Department of Special Education in Costa Rica in setting up special education programs in these two countries.
Gary Clark, associate professor of education, conducted
1 survey of vocational education resources in Central America.
Ridgway said they were currently planning a study of teacher educational resources and an expanded program in the use of educational technology and audiovisual aids in teaching.
BESIDES SENDING faculty members to the Latin American countries, Ridgway said, the project also sponsors training sessions at KU for teachers from the countries. Faculty members from the KU in these sessions, as well as outside experts who are brought in.
Abraham Kaplan, philosopher, author, and lecturer, will speak on "The Meaning of Loneliness" at 8:00 tonight in Woodcraft Auditorium as part of the 25th Humanities Lecture Series.
Philosopher to Lecture On Meaning of Loneliness
William Hector Harding, 1128 New York St., was charged with drunken and beckess driving to three parked cars in N-one at 7:46 p.m. Saturday, KU Traffic and security officials said
The last training session was held in October and covered international cooperative planning for curriculum development.
DWI Charged After Wreck In N-Zone Lot
Harding drove his 1963 red automobile over a curbing 10 feet west of the second west entrance to N-zone, police said.
Kaplan was born in Odesna, Russia, in 1918. He was brought to the U.S. in 1923 and naturalized in 1930.
After serving as an instructor at New York University from 1944-45, Kaplan returned to UCLA and was the first professor he remained until 1963, serving as associate professor. From 1952-56, he served as professor of philosophy and also served as the director of the philosophy department.
He is now a professor of philosophy at the University of Michigan, a position he has held since 1963.

Students can collect a five per cent refund on last semester's bookstore blue slips beginning Feb. 7.
Bookstore to Give 5% Rebate; Refunding to Begin February 7
Since an average of 20 to 25 percent of redeemable receipts are redeemed, the computer computes the percentage of refund on the basis of 75 to 80 percent redemption thus allowing the computer to fund a larger share of the profits.
Ridgway said that when the treaty for AID was written the Finance Ministry of the Latin American country asked that KU participate.
Other scholars scheduled for the Humanities Lecture Series this semester are Oswald P. Backus of the University of Kansas history department, Bob Boryk of Robert Langhaus, a specialist in Victorian literature from the University of Virginia.
Ridgway said that the project was operating on a budget of about $100,000 a year and that they had been asked to make a proposal that would increase the budget by almost 100 per cent. He said that of very few programs that have not had their budgets reduced.
Ridgway said that one reason this request was probably that Kate did not like alternatives to the countries of instead of forcing ideas on them. She organized them in a way organized to fit in with the countries' political and cultural needs.
This procedure was initiated three years ago when the Student Senate voted to appropriate this portion of total refunds for scholarships to be administered by the Department of Urban Affairs.
