On Tuesday OCI presented a round of speakers covering its production process, its alerting function, and its tie-in with the CIA Operations Center. The day was concluded by the usual and productive session of the CT's with former CT's who have been on the job in OCI for varying lengths of time. Later in the week the students went to the country desks and produced a weekly article on very short notice. These articles were all critiqued on the Vu-Graph on Friday. Meantime, the students had also been preparing a briefing in which they critiqued the current intelligence production of the community on specific problems, on the basis of the production on those problems and against specific requirements in the assign- ment. These briefings were filmed -- a high point for the students -- and they will be critiqued on briefing performance by at a later date.

The collectors wanted to know more about the requirements problem, and the analysts, interestingly enough, seemed to be concerned about the increasing importance of the computer in intelligence.
