d. "Supervision and Group Performance Training, " a program
developed by Mr. Ross Pollock of CSC.
Following the awards ceremony, Mr. Thomas Carr, Director, Committee
on White House Fellows explained the White House Fellows program as fol-
lows:
President Johnson established the program last October to give a
few outstanding young Americans an opportunity to participate directly in
the affairs of their Government. This is neither an intern program nor an
educational program as such. The White House Fellows program is both
visionary and idealistic, but long-range benefits should accrue because the
participants will be potential "National leaders. " In fact only fifteen White
House Fellows are being selected from approximately 3, 000 applications.
After completing one year of government service, the fifteen participants
will return to their former employers and be replaced in Washington by
fifteen new hopefuls. Four Fellows will be assigned to the White House
Staff, one to Vice-President Humphrey, and the other ten will be assigned
to the President's Cabinet - one to each regular Cabinet members.
The applicants have been screened by Regional Committees with final
selection being made by the Commission on White House Fellows which is
headed by David Rockefeller, N. Y. banker.
Eligibility is limited to college graduates in the 23-35 age bracket.
Other selection criteria are: academic record, career progression, civic
activities, and leadership qualities.
In preparation for their "meaningful work assignments, including
policy making matters, " the fifteen White House Fellows will receive an
orientation at Williamsburg, formal training at Brookings Institution,
seminars, field trips, and the like.
A stipend from the Carnegie Foundation will finance the program, and
the amount to each Fellow will be based partially on his number of dependents.
(Dave has other particulars on the program in his notes).
