What are the principal problems involved from the university side and from the federal side? How might these be met? Is there interest on the federal side in developing some more general means of discussing other problems that should also be of interest to both the agencies and the universities? Examples would be the types and quality of the linguistic and substantive training presently or prospectively provided by the universities for students planning to embark on careers in government with one of the international agencies; the adequacy of the numbers of such students in the light of estimated government needs; the use that the government makes in practice of its internationally trained specialists; retraining and updating facilities on campus that might be Approved For Release 20071t /20 : CIA-RDP83M00914R000800'170048-8 available for federal use--in.short, the issue of skilled manpower in the international field viewed from a number of perspectives. 4) Should the preceding discussions warrant, the group might agree to constitute a small federal-academic task force to develop a specific plan for further action. ,Approved For Release 2007/02/20: CIA-RDP83M00914R000800170048-8
