National Peace Corps May Convene on Campus in 1964
KU, which last week held the first statewide Peace Corps conference, may be the host to a national Peace Corps convention next year.
"The national office knows we are interested in holding a national convention, and many of the advisers are receptive to the idea," Robert Swan, Topeka junior and chairman of the KU Peace Corps committee said.
"We will draw up a tentative program and present it to them this summer," he said.
IF THE PROGRAM were approved by officials at national headquarters, the convention would probably be a two- or three day conference during spring vacation Swan said.
"In planning for the convention, we intend to draw a lot on our experiences from organizing the statewide convention held here last weekend." Swan said.
He said much of the hope for successful representation at a national convention rests with committees at other universities.
"WE RECEIVED completed questionnaires from over 400 schools, and we now have a fairly complete knowledge of how Peace Corps committees operate on other campuses."
"Another factor in our favor is the fact that we just finished conducting a national survey for the Washington office," Swan said.
Swan said Sargent Shriver, director of the Peace Corps, and several other high officials of the organization would probably attend the convention here.
"Shriver has planned to visit KU several times," Swan said, "but something else always came up. If we have a national convention here, I am almost sure he will be here."
Swan said the campus facilities, especially those of the Kansas Union, would be ideal for staging such a convention. The KU dormitory facilities would probably be used to house delegates, he said.
"Of course, all this depends on whether or not Washington approves the idea," Swan said, "but we feel there is a good chance they will."
PeaceCorps Speakers Bureau Seeks Student Volunteers
The KU Peace Corps committee is looking for volunteer student speakers who are interested in doing campus speaking for the Peace Corps.
The need for additional speaker has resulted from the committee' plan to improve its Speakers Bu reau next year.
"This year we reached approximately 15,000 high school students and members of civic organizations in the Lawrence, Topeka, Kansas City and Wichita areas." Robert Swan, Topeka junior and chairman of the KU committee said.
"NEXT YEAR we want to expand the program and work more closely with other universities such as Wichita and Kansas State," he said.
"WE ALSO PLAN to have some type of summer Speakers Bureau, and will need speakers for it," Swan said.
The committee is interviewing candidates for these and several other committee chairmanships and positions for next year.
The interviews will be held from 2-5 p.m., Sunday in the Kansas Union.
