THE INTERNATIONAL HOUSE FORUM The vortex of the International House program has always been the special evenings when distinguished visitors come to speak with students. However compelling the remarks of the speaker, the best part of any Forum is the discussion period when the residents react to the speaker. When William Bundy, Editor of FOREIGN AFFAIRS, addresses “Foreign Policy in the 1980 Campaign,” he

are experiencing their first U.S. presidential election. . When Arnaud de Borchgrave, Editor of NEWSWEEK, describes his interviews with the “chess players in the game of geo-politics,”” he knows that his listeners come from countries which have both triumphed and suffered by the playing of that game. In urging students to seek the “democratization of the economic system,” Noam Chomsky, Professor of Linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, speaks with the knowledge that students come from countries at all points of the “have” and “have not” scale. Speakers obviously enjoy the atmosphere at International House. As Elliot Richardson said in his opening remarks, “you young people (at I. House) are every day given insights that derive from the realization

Career exploration and planning is an imponant part of many program events. The “Meet Your Trustee” program provides opportunity for residents to talk with leaders in their field of interest.

LAW PROGRAM PROVIDES PROFESSIONAL EXCHANGE During this past year, students involved in law programs participated in a professional interest program designed to introduce them to practicing lawyers and their firms. Lawyers representing different areas of legal interest visited the House to talk with residents and students and went on field trips to legal firms including Breed, Abbott & Morgan; Richards, O’Neil & Allegaert; and Shearman & Sterling.

During the spring semester, our prospective lawyers were joined by four lawyers from the People’s Republic of China, in New York to participate in a program sponsored jointly by Columbia Law School and two New York law firms: Haight Gardner, Poor & Havens, and Shearman & Sterling. The Chinese visitors included research scholars with China’s National Law Institute in Peking and with the China Council for International Trade.
FOUR PROFILES
INTERNATIONAL HOUSE PAPERS
An Indian student anticipates working for an American corporation and feels comfortable about his understanding of the American point of view. A young UN official has confidence in his ability to work with representatives of many different nationalities in the sensitive subject area of population. A former resident from Greece is grateful for the flexibility of thinking he acquired at the House as he begins his career with a multi-national corporation in America. An American business student will spend his summer in a Tokyo bank because he explored the full range of the world-wide I. House network.
The International House Papers were inaugurated in the spring of 1979 as a series of meetings between residents and visitors to focus on one particular issue. “Roles of Women” was the first topic to be addressed in this series. At a February conference on “Women’s Roles and the Family,” two outstanding I. House alumnae participated in the series. Drawing from her experience as
Assistant Secretary General of the UN and Director of the UN Year of the Child, Dr. Estephania Lim, the distinguished Philippine psychologist, addressed the special problems of children throughout the world. Patricia Cloherty, president of the New York venture capital firm, Tessler and Cloherty, spoke about women as entrepreneurs.
Madhav Misra Madhav Misra is representative of the mature I. House resident who brings with him an international background of work and study. After receiving his undergraduate degree in economics at Delhi University in 1971, he went to England, qualified as a chartered accountant and worked for Peat Marwick & Mitchell in England and Iran, as well as for the German firm, Siemens. Madhav has had a long-term plan to be

came to New York and Columbia to earn an MBA. For Madhav, living at 1. House provided the opportunity to talk with Americans and explore the “dynamic and innovative” attitudes which he believes characterize American business. He found staff members, Trustees, and fellow American residents eager to explain American customs and patterns of
of the world.” In his present job as a program officer for the UN Fund for Population Activities, he must relate to many different disciplines and to people from many different cultures. He needs “to be sensitive to all the particular perceptions of the world of people from many countries.”

A native of Washington, in
New Jersey as part of the Management Training Program of Johnson & Johnson International. He was recruited from I. House because this company needed a well-trained representative to work in the area of finance in Greece, so he will return to his native country after his training period. Michael’s background made him an ideal candidate. A graduate of the Piraeus Graduate School of Industrial Studies in Greece, he also earned an MBA from New York University while he was living at International House. Michael believes that the opportunity he had at International House to associate closely with people from many countries and to understand their dif-
ferent ways of thinking increased his own flexibility of thought and broadened his perspectives.

ALUMNI AND RESIDENTS ENJOY THE TRADITION OF PERFORMING ARTS Jens Nygaard Conducts I. House Orchestra The most outstanding concert of the International House Chamber Orchestra was at the December Sunday Supper when alumnus Jens Nygaard, founder and director of the Jupiter Symphony in New York, was guest conductor. The year was also filled with recitals, and con certs by residents and guest musicians and theatrical evenings. On February 24, 1980, we held the Annual Fiesta of Song and Dance, an | House tradition since 1965, which included music from all parts of the world.
Leontyne Price and Daisy Soros at the 55th An niversary Celebration
HOWARD COOK HONORED AT CELEBRATION Daisy Soros, as chairman, headed an enthusiastic committee of alumni for the celebration of the 55th Anniversary of International House and Howard Cook’s 25 years as President, on March 15, 1980. The Performing Arts Foundation presented a musical program by I. House alumni. Tenor Robert Owen Jones sang with his wife, soprano Carol Wilcox. Anker Buch, who has amused many I. House audiences in the past with his comic violin routines, delighted the audience, accompanied by Linda Cuneo. One of the most moving moments of the evening occurred when Leontyne Price, as a guest of one of the committee members,

NATIONAL SECRETARY PROJECT BEGUN BY KOREA Korean residents Young Soo Soh, an engineering student of Columbia and Hoonyong Kim, a Columbia business student are the first student residents to be chosen as National Secretaries for I. House. These new positions revive the practice of Nationality Secretaries which existed during the years of the Intercollegiate
Cosmopolitan Club and the earliest years of the House. Essentially, these secretaries act as a country’s cultural ambassador. This year the secretaries showed films discussing different aspects of Korean culture and history and also arranged a Korean Evening. Sun Ock Lee, a former member of the ALLNATIONS Dance Company performed Korean dances followed by a reception featuring Ginseng tea and other Korean specialties.

Dr. Ichak Adizes speaks at UPO seminar in the East Room.
A Day with Adizes As a top management consultant who presents seminars all over the world, Ichak Adizes is expert in identifying problems and suggesting solutions. He remembers quite vividly that a common problem for a graduate student is having enough money, and he remembers that a scholarship, donated by the Young Presidents’ Organization for an outstanding foreign graduate student in business, enabled him to stay in New York to finish his degree and secure his professional future. Dr. Adizes wanted to recognize his debt to International House and the YPO. Last fall he offered to conduct a seminar at International House and to donate his usual honorarium to International House for a new business scholar-
ship. On March 27, 1980 over 30 members of the YPO attended a seminar in the East Room, entitled “A Day with Adizes.” In addition to a dynamic presentation of his management theories, Dr. Adizes also spoke of his experiences in the House as illustrations of the unique way I. House helps students learn to deal and work with people. Dr. Adizes went on to say that his experience at International House was the most valuable part of his education in New York— more valuable than what he had learned in university courses.
His goal of reactivating the I. House/ YPO connection was realized. Norton Stevens, a Trustee and member of YPO, presented a check to I. House for Dr. Adizes’ services.

THE ANNUAL FUND Sims Letter Excerpts
We are pleased to print the following Honor Roll of leadership gifts to the Alumni
Annual
Fund
for 1979-80
‘Perhaps it wasn’t all that good, but as I look back through the haze of forty-four years, my life at International House during those depression years of 1935 and ’36 appears to have been as insouciant as the winter winds that pummel pedestrians on that stretch of Riverside Drive. Whatever my concerns, surely the financial condition of the House was not one of them. Indeed, why should I have been concerned? It was common knowledge that the House was generously endowed and thus free of the financial cares that beset other institutions. Some ten years after leaving I. House I learned with some surprise that this ‘common knowledge’ was totally in error; that the House was not and had never been totally self-supporting. That, in fact, there was a gap between income (student fees) and outgo that amounted to $500 per student per year: with 500 residents, a sobering yearly deficit of around a quarter of a million dollars. This was to say that I, along with every other resident, had been subsidized to the tune of $500 per year. Logically, one might expect the grateful recipients of this largess, the thousands of former residents, to contribute sufficient funds to erase this recurring deficit. Trouble is, most of us sailed through our time at International House blissfully unaware of these chronic financial difficulties... ..It should be said here that many alumni who have been contacted or who have maintained a relationship with the House do make significant contributions annually... .But in spite of these contributions the major part of each year’s deficit is covered by gifts from foundations, business corporations, foreign governments, and individuals other than alumni. And House management must expend a great deal of time and energy generating these grants. How gratifying it would be if the picture were reversed and the major portion of these contributions came from those on whom the House has its most rightful claim: its own former residents.”’
(list

$100 in this issue. Gifts of all kinds are important to support the program at International House. In order for the program to remain vital, however, support is needed from more
contributors. Starlin Sims,
