NEW YORK (AP) -- Columbia
University said yesterday it has been
informed by the CIA it was involved
in "mind control" research in the
1950s and is launching an investiga-
tion into which staff members took
part in the project.
A university spokesman said any,
such projects were initiated and
sponsored by the CIA, and the uni-
versity had no prior knowledge that
the intelligence agency was working
on "mind control.
The CIA has disclosed that some 80
institutions were used for the experi-
ments into behavior-altering drugs,
including LSD, over a period of at
`least two decades.
