Grads Can Study in Venezuela
Want to travel?
There are openings for four graduate students in an educational exchange between KU and Universidad de Oriente (UDO) in Cumana, Venezuela. Two students in chemistry, one in physics, and one in biology are needed to teach at UDO for two years, Daniel Janzen, assistant professor of entomology, said.
KU has been awarded a $400,000 Ford Foundation grant for the exchange. The grant is for two years with a possible three-year extension. UDO will provide $302,000 to help the project.

THE PURPOSE of the project is to strengthen the UDO School of Basic Sciences.
UDO selected eight members of their science faculty to come to KU to work for their master's degrees. KU will send five advisers and eight instructors for the two years.
Here from Venezuela are: mathematics — Rafael Arias and Jose Chaparra; physics — Nelson Sanguinetti and Marco Figueros; chemistry — Hernan Cordova; zoology — Juan Lem; bio-chemistry — Asmar Nusetti and Ramon Buonaffina.
THE GRADUATE instructors going to Venezuela are : mathematics — J. Dukelow and H. Mick; physics — L. Lockwood; and biology — J. Smith.
Six KU faculty members went
1. Hey, you coming to the hootenanny?
I'm not feeling very folksy tonight.
2. You got those low-down, feelin' poorly, out-of sorts blues?
I wouldn't get so poetic about it.
8. Why not sing out your woes?
Let the world hear your troubles.
Look, singing has nothing to do with it. I've been thinking about the kind of work I want to do when I graduate.
4. Music of the people can provide a catharsis.
I don't need one.
I doubt if the winds will tell me where I can get a challenging job with good pay and plenty of opportunity to move up.
5. Shout your story to the hills,
the sands, the far-away seas.
And listen for an answer from
the winds.
6. Oh, if that's what you're concerned about, why not get in touch with Equitable. They're looking for college men who have demonstrated a potential for above-average achievement. I'm sure you'd be happy in one of the special development programs because the work is fascinating, the salary excellent, and the opportunities unlimited.
Say, how about a medley of John Henry, Rock Island Line and Michael, Row the Boat Ashore.
Make an appointment through your Placement Office to see Equitable's employment representative on November 12 or write to Patrick Scollard, Manpower Development Division, for further information

READING DYNAMICS is a unique, revolutionary new process of reading rapidly down the page, allowing the eyes to trigger the mind directly. This eliminates the bad habits which cause slow reading; 1—The habit of saying the words to ourself. 2—Seeing only one word at a time. 3—Regression, that is, going back and rereading material unnecessarily.
READING DYNAMICS encourages students to bring their own technical books to study. In addition to improving their reading speed and comprehension, they can also get some of their "homework" out of the way. This is valuable to students as special techniques are used on technical material.
READING DYNAMICS is different from other courses. No machines are used. You learn, instead, to use your hand as a pacer, a tool you always have with you. Conventional rapid reading courses aspire to 450-600 words per minute.Most Reading Dynamics graduates can read between 1,500 and 3,000 words per minute, and many go even higher.
GUARANTEE
We guarantee to increase the reading efficiency of each student by at least three times with equal or better comprehension. We will refund the entire tuition of any student who does not triple his reading efficiency as measured by the beginning and subsequent tests, or the student may retake the course free of charge. A refund is conditional upon the student attending all classes or having made up
missed sessions with the teacher. The student must also have practiced the required number of hours, following the assignments as outlined by the teacher. The average student may expect a five-time increase in reading speed, and an improvement in comprehension and recall. Any student who must withdraw from the course for any reason may re-enter any subsequent courses at any future time, at no additional cost.
