Thanks for the information. Looks like
good show. Couldn't agree more that "PR"

FROM . Associate Coordinator for Academic Relations
and External Analytical Support
SUBJECT : University Presidents' Visit
1. Presidents Jerome Wiesner of MIT, Martin Woodin of Louisiana
State University, Henry K. Stanford of the University of Miami, and
John Hogness of the University of Washington have accepted Admiral
Turner's invitation to visit the Agency on March 10. In letters to
them and the presidents of four other leading universities (the latter
four are unable to participate on March 10, but have asked to be
included if subsequent visits are scheduled), the DCI said that one
of his principal objectives "is to restore a high degree of mutual-
respect and understanding between the intelligence and academic
communities." A sample letter is attached.
2. The DCI has approved the outline of a schedule for the day
(copy attached) that includes several meetings with him, presentations
by senior Agency officials and discussions about CIA activities,
personalized briefings suited to the particular interests of each
visitor, and informal meetings with representative alumni from each
university. It may be possible to conduct some of the briefings at
the Secret level. I would appreciate your comments and suggestions
for additional or alternative activities and participation. Admiral
Turner has confirmed his participation as presented in the proposed
schedule, but the remainder is still flexible and tentative.
3. The four presidents or -their universities will pay their
travel and other expenses, and each is coming to Washington expressly
to accept the DCI's invitation. In discussions with DCD field repre-
sentatives, they have indicated a high degree of interest and
curiosity. President Wiesner dealt intimately with the intelligence
community in previous positions, but the other three visitors have had
little or no contact with us. (Rios attached) Although the four are

not known as public critics of the Agency, each most likely will reflect,
at least to a certain extent, prevailing attitudes on his campus, At
MIT a faculty committee is in the process of drafting. guidelines to
govern relations- between the university and the intelligence community,
and at the University of Washington, faculty and student opinion is still
believed to be strongly critical of CIA,
4. We should most likely expect the visitors to be wary, dis-
cerning, and perhaps suspicious of our intentions. While they are
obviously interested in hearing our side of the many issues that h.aye
boiled about us these last few years, they will probably be unsympathetic
if they thought we were doing this primarily for public relations pur-
poses, Candor, directness, and a willingness to discuss a broad range
of intelligence activities will tend to refute any thoughts that by
these efforts the Agency is going through the act of putting a mask on,
or of taking one off.

9 FEB 1978
Dear President Woodin:
r E J
1978
Since its inception the Central Intelligence Agency has sought
to maintain effective relationships with scholars and academic
institutions throughout the United States, Over the years these
relationships have been of inestimable value to the intelligence
community. I hope and believe that the relationship has been of
mutual benefit. In the wake of the considerable public criticism
over the past several years of our nation's intelligence operations,
this relationship has become somewhat tender. I would like to ask
your help and advice in determining how best to restore a useful but
proper connection between academia and the world of intelligence.
Clearly there are limits beyond which we in the intelligence
world should not go in dealing with members of the academic community.
I do have very express rules with respect to that today, but how we
are operating within these rules is not always clear to others. Today
there are also many new opportunities to use unclassified information
derived through the collection of intelligence for the benefit of
academic research. I do not believe that we have the proper mechanisms
today to insure the adequate provision of such information to academic
institutions.
Accordingly, I would like to ask you to join with several other
university presidents and me here at the Central Intelligence Agency
Headquarters on the 10th of March. The objective would be to have a
free-flowing exchange of ideas on how to reestablish the academic-
intelligence relationship on a sound and proper basis for mutual
advantage. This will be a quiet, private meeting of ten to twelve of
us, during which we will take the opportunity of asking you to visit
our CIA facilities and meet with a variety of our Agency officers
representing a diverse group of intellectual disciplines, My hope
would be that in your spending a day with us our relationships might
improve to our mutual benefit, taking into full account the problems
of the past and the attitudes of the present.
