When I briefed Loch Johnson on
1 August 1978, he asked how we
handled contacts with Harvard
faculty members since their Guide-
lines went into effect.
Attached are samples of stan-5
dard Correspondence from our
to Harvard faculty 25X
members (university department
chairmen) who are teaching in areas
of employment interest to us. One
letter is directed to those in the
liberal arts areas; the other the
scientific. The letters are usu-
ally accompanied by one of the
attached bulletin board items p
a silver brochure (Loch Johnson 25X
already has a copy)
The Harvard placement office i.s
aware that these letters are being
routinely sent. However,. when
sets up a person2~X
meeting with a Harvard faculty
2 5X
member, the placement office is
specifically, advised.

I hope you will share the enclosed bulletin and brochure with
those students you feel might be interested in federal career
opportunities.
The students we particularly wish to contact are those with
academic course work which is directing them to a foreign area
specialization. The A.M. candidate is of primary interest to
us, but we are also interested in those undergraduates whose
academic achievement and desire will lead them into graduate
work. Agency employees are encouraged to continue their
studies and we are usually able to grant tuition assistance
for work-related part-time graduate programs offered by the
universities in the Washington, D. C. area. On occasion, an
academic leave of absence for full-time study is offered.
During the summer of 1976 there will be several opportunities
in our Summer Intern program for the graduate who has completed
the first year of study in a regional or international special-
ization.
Brochures and general information are available in the Career
Counseling and Placement Office of your university. I would
be very pleased to receive correspondence or resumes from your
students.
Sincerely yours,
Enclosed: bulletin/brochure

I hope you will share the enclosed bulletin and brochure with
those students you feel might be interested in federal career
opportunities.
The students we particularly wish to contact are those with
an interest in research and writing activities. For others
we will have opportunities in communications systems develop-
ment and management and there will also be some career positions
for those who have emphasized computer applications in their
academic work. The M.S. candidate is of primary interest to
us, but we are also interested in those undergraduates whose
academic achievement and desire will lead them into graduate
work. Agency employees are encouraged to continue their studies
and we are usually able to grant tuition assistance for work-
related part-time graduate programs offered by the universities
