QUINN said he had been told that the trip would compete with existing foreign travel programs, but he thought that it would be lack of investment was recent controversy raised concerning the program.
"I feel particularly distressed about this" he said, "I know of no evidence that our trips have detracted from established foreign travel programs for felons and administration was going to reject the anyway. It was doomed from the start."
Quain was encouraged, however, by the increase in enrollment.
"We're very happy with the increase, and we intent to keep the program alive," he said.
Since the inception of the program in 1971, the IHP has had an average enrollment of 120 students, Quinn said. However, enrollment dropped sharply last year.
QUINN MAINTAINS the drop in controversy wasn't caused by the controversy or uncertainty about the program, but was instead the result of administrative decisions that Quinn believes were designed to destroy the program.
"The University wants to give us minimum support and hopes we get discouraged and quit." Quim saddened were at first feeling, but cutting it up the effect has been to pull us together. There's nothing like persecution to unite people."
Words like persecution, censorship, and propaganda have become commonplace in discussions of the HIP. Its supporters claim the program provides background in the foundations of Western culture and also has personalized instruction in the classics.
OPPONENTS CHARGE that the three faculty members of the program, professors John Senior, Frankyn Neilck and Quinn, will teach in Roman Catholic during class lectures.
Shankel said the administration had been receiving pressure from both sides in the dispute, but had not been affected by the arguments.
Two administrative decisions in particular have been questioned by Quinn. One was a decision by the Office of Academic Affairs that prevents any academic programs from mailing literature or advertisements to incoming freshmen. The IHP had previously sent brochures to all incoming freshmen.
The other decision forbids academic programs from setting up information orientation sessions and enlightenment, practice the HP, had previously followed.
"Those policies were instituted because we believe that it is inappropriate for departments and programs within the university to compete with each other for students." Shankel said. "They were not directed at the humanities program."
Quinn argued that his program was at a unique disadvantage faced by no other.
"When a student comes here, he already knows that an English department exists, and anybody can find the Slavic language program if they are interested!" he said. But nobody knows our program exist; it depends on by allowing us to distribute literature."
Quinn said he had been ordered by the administration to destroy all the program's brochures and posters because they were unauthorized and contained possibly misleading information about the group's final plans for the trip to Ireland.

Kevin Johnson, Kansas City, Kan., junior, signed an interest sheet for the honorary society during enrollment last week.
"I'm going to do it," Johnson said. "Women have gotten into all phases of the military so there is no need for separate organizations."
Johnson said Air Force ROTC began a male auxiliary organization called the Arnold Air Society, and because women were not allowed to join it, Angel Fight was
