GI Student Council Head In Italy Returns To K.U. For History Ph.D.
After serving as president of the student council of the 300 American soldiers at the University of Florence in Italy, Vernie C. Clinch, Negro, 26, has returned to the University of Kansas to complete his work on a doctor of philosophy degree in history.
"While in Rome I visited the Vatican seven times and my last visit was climaxed by a private 15-minute audience with Pope Pius XII," Clinch said.
He explained that the meeting was made possible by a Dutch priest who had studied in Rome with a friend of his.
Clinch was also president of the University club, an organization maintaining a building for the faculty and student recreation.
"We were Italian student hats to all social gatherings," he said. "We were also given 'protection scrolls' which were formerly used to protect
freshmen from initiation from upper classmen, but we used them for admission to the University club."
Clinch was inducted into the army in 1942, and ended as a master sergeant in the signal corps. He received a master of arts degree from the University of Kansas in 1932, and made a study of unemployment relief in France during the French revolution, under grants of the Rockefeller foundation. His hobby is playing the organ.
"Student life at the University of Florence is similar to student life here. Classes, parties, and strikes are part of the routine," he commented. "Classes were conducted in English."
"The study of languages, literature and history were especially fascinating to me because I could leave a class, walk into the city and look at the objects being studied," Clinch said. He received first prize in Italian literature.
