The Program was established in 1960 to do a specific job: to produce leaders in many different fields-law, business, journalism, social science, government, and others-with the desire, the ability, and the training to act effectively in the international arena. The International Fellows are selected from among the most promising students in the professional and graduate schools of the University. Of the 1,000 or so Fellows appointed since 1960, more than half graduated from college with honors or as members of Phi Beta Kappa, and over a quarter held major, nationally-awarded, graduate fellowships. While mastering their chosen disciplines, the Fellows receive through the Program rigorous exposure to international politics and to United States foreign policy. Outstanding scholars and officials come to the University to speak, and intensive briefing trips to the White House, the Congress, the United Nations, and various national and international agencies are arranged. The organizing principles of the Program have remained constant over the years, but the content of the instruction has been continuously revised and updated. A course of lectures and briefings is offered that reflects the latest understanding of inter- national relations. One of the objectives of the Program, and of the foundations and corporations that support it, is to inspire a commitment to public service among the Fellows. It is with pleasure and pride that we see the graduates of the Program assuming important positions in our society. Many are already serving in international aspects of their chosen professions-in government, business, journalism, economic consulting, law, medicine, teaching, and others. If some of the Fellows achieve positions of leadership, and if they all continue their interest in interna- tional affairs, this Program will have fulfilled its purpose. 5 Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 The International Fellows Ciovram Offices s WILLIAM J.

A number cf other foundations have endorsed the Program's objectives by provid- ing financ al support. A complete list of these supporting organizations follows: The Geor;e F. Baker Trust the Bing i:und The Compton Foundation, Inc. Continental Oil Company Crown Zellerbach Foundation Houston Endowment, Inc. Inland Steel-Ryersor Foundation IBM The Interrational Nickel Company The Johnson Foundation Merck She rp & Dohme International Henry and Lucy Moss Fund The Edward John Noble Foundation Ellis L.

Since its inception the Program has derived substantial benefit from its close association with the School of International Affairs. In 1964 the Program was offi- cially integrated with the School, thereby permitting the Fellows to draw further upon its faculty and its other resources. In setting policy for the Program, Dean Randle has the assistance of a committee drawn from the Faculty of International Affairs, including Professors William T. R. Fox and Louis Henkin and Dean Harvey Picker. The International Fellows Program is housed in the fifteen-story International Affairs Building. This building is the major center of international studies and acti- vities at Columbia University. In addition to the School of International Affairs and the International Fellows Program, the building houses the Departments of Poli- tical Science, Economics, and Geography; the eight Regional Institutes; the Insti- tute of War and Peace Studies; the Research Institute on International Change; and a 600,000-volume library devoted to all aspects of international affairs. An auditorium with a capacity of 500 and the Kellogg Conference Center on the top floor have enabled the School to expand its conference activity and increase the number of distinguished visitors. The Program enjoys the use of these facilities and also occupies the Inter- national Fellows Seminar Room on the fourteenth floor. The Fellows meet here for their weekly discussions and assemble informally before lectures to greet guests over coffee. This room also houses a small but focused collection of international materials, including current periodicals, that have proved to be a useful supple- ment to the University libraries themselves. The International Fellows have visited the Ford Foundation offices in New York City many times. McGeorge Bundy, when he was president of the Foundation, often chaired the briefings.

It is therefore open to anyone who has been admitted to a graduate de- gree program in Columbia University and who plans to pursue a career in inter- national,rspects of government service, teaching, business, or the professions. Fellows are selected by a committee appointed by the Director of the Program. Admissic n is based on consideration of the applicant's entire collegiate and graduate school record; on evidence of character, motivation, and professional promise; on the recommendations of instructors; and particularly on evidence of demonst ated ability and potential for leadership in a chosen field and in inter- national e ffairs. Note: Students in the School of Law and the College of Physicians and Surgeons may not enter the Program before their second year of graduate study. Admission Procedure An applicant for admission should write to the International Fellows Program, Room 14'?0, International Affairs Building, Columbia University, New York, N.Y. 10027, fo - an application form and for further instructions. If not already enrolled or admitted to a graduate degree program at Columbia, the applicant should also write to he admissions office of the appropriate University division (e.g., the School of Law, the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, the Graduate School of Business, >_tc.)for a bulletin and application forms. Application may be made before mid-April for particioation in the Program beginning the following September. Gfil'rll f culum Each International Fellow follows a program of study prescribed by the gradu- ate schoo or department of the University in which he or she is enrolled. Fellows are strongly encouraged to take the elective courses that will be the best prep- aration for service in the international aspects of their professions. As part of their individual programs, the Fellows take a one-year lecture-seminar course, described below, which forms the core of the International Follows Program. The number o credits received for the course is determined by the Committee on Instructior of the school or department concerned. Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 Lecture and Seminar Course IFP W6045x-W6046y-The United States in World Affairs-is a lecture and semi- nar course given for the International Fellows exclusively. In the twenty or so years in which the course has been offered, its academic directors have sought to provide the Fellows with the best instruction in world affairs and U.S. foreign policy. The Fellows have had the opportunity to discuss the issues among them- selves, and with leading scholars, publicists, and public figures. Each year, guest lecturers are chosen to present their expertise on a variety of topics in inter- national politics and American foreign relations. The subject matter of the course has evolved to reflect the growing complexity of the modern world, and our growing awareness of that complexity. An early concentration upon security issues in the last years of the Cold War has been in- creasingly augmented with surveys of regional problems and with investigations of the global problems of human welfare. Recently the Fellows looked at aspects of world energy affairs, and sessions have been scheduled on oil, food, and the problems of less-developed countries, as well as the philosophical problems of justice and human rights in world politics. In addition to the lectures, the Fellows select one of three seminar groups to satisfy the course requirement. In the autumn term, one group focuses on the theories and concepts of international politics; the second and third deal with American foreign policy issues. The focus of the seminar groups in the spring term is decided in accordance with the interests of the Fellows and the Director. The Director of the Program has also been a member of the Columbia faculty. Since 1972 the course has been directed by Robert F. Randle, Lecturer in Inter- national Affairs at Columbia University. He is the author of "Geneva 1954: The Settlement of the Indochinese War," and "The Origins of Peace: A Study of Peacemaking and the Structure of Peace Settlements." He was the principal edi- tor of "From War to Peace: Essays in Peacemaking and War Termination," the fourth book published by the International Fellows Program. Mr. Randle is assisted by members of the Columbia faculty, visiting professors from other uni- versities, and guest lecturers with long experience in the formulation and con- duct of domestic and foreign policy. The course is complemented by special briefing trips and activities during the year. The Fellows meet in a lecture session each Tuesday afternoon from 4 to 6 p.m. and in one seminar session each week during both terms. Washington briefings are on a Thursday and a Friday each term (usually in late October and again in early April). Other briefings are ordinarily scheduled on Friday afternoons. The lecture series for the current academic year appears in the enclosed insert. 9 Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 Approved For Release 2004/10/28 : CIA-RDP86B00985R000400120006-0 Briefing Trips and Special Orient ation The In ernational Fellows Program begins with a short orientation session held immediately after classes start at Columbia in the fall. The United Nations A major feature of the Program has always been a unique series of briefings at the UnitE d Nations and the U.S. Mission to the U.N. The experience provides the Fellows with as many geographical and ideological perspectives on the work of the organization and on U.S. foreign policy, as can be scheduled in one day. Washington, D.C. over tie years, the Fellows have made two-day briefing trips to Washington, one in thl! fall and one in the spring. The fat visit has usually focused upon the Executive Branch. The Fellows have met with several top officials at the Department of Defense, including the Service Secretarii:s. At the State Department, the Fellows have been briefed by the Assis- tant Secretaries of State and on occasion, the incumbent Secretary of State. At the WhitE: House, the Fellows have met with Assistants to the President for eco- nomic mE,tters, manpower, and special projects, and senior staff members in the office of the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs. I he spi ing trip concentrates upon the role of Congress in the formulation of foreign policy, and the Fellows then meet several prominent members of the Senate and House, including senior members of the Foreign Relations and Foreign Affairs Committees. The man Washinqton objectives are Capitol Hill, the White House, the Pen- tagon, the State Department, and the Treasury, but the Program also visits other relevant institutions in the D.C. area, including the World Bank, the Central Intelli- gence Agency, the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, the International Monetary Fund, and the Washington Bureau of the "New York Times." The Fellows have also met with officials from the Organization of American States and ministers
