Texas Techsan May 1961

MAN has not yet learned how to go back in time to give himself another chance at opportunities which he bypassed in his earlier years.

Although man has not been able to send his physical body back to the "good or days," he has been able to travel to the past through his dreams and writings.·

If you knew then what you know now, how would you change your past to better suit your present future? How would you finish the phrase · "If I were in college again "?

The TECHSAN asked this question of a 1932 and a 1955 graduate. Their answers differ, perhaps as a result of their professions which are similar yet different and the times during which they received their degrees.

?overnment degree recipIent, feels that perhaps the depression had more effect than the college. When he graduated, there were no jobs, and a fellow had to do what he could to keep from starving to death. But at Tech there was instilled in him the desire to work.· in newspaper and radio, and in Ia

"That desire has stayed with me all these years. It was at Tech that I came to the conclusion that I 'liked people' and that I wanted to engage in a vocation where I work-· ed with people every day.

"I got a good education while in Tech when bne considers that book learning alone is not the sole way to judge an education. I learned how to get along with people, learned about various jobs and professions, and was· forced to get along with little money and thus learned some economic lessons that I wouldn't take anything for.

"I learned to know personally hundreds of students from all parts of Texas and I learned a lot about human nature. Added to this was some book learning, but rm sorry to say, not as much as there should have been.

took too long for me to learn how to study. I fear that this is still the situation among college freshmen and sophomores. There was no organized study methods for me to learn, no one to guide me. I never had a proper place to study, until I learned to study in the college library. Too many outside activities

attracted me, yet in my own heart I did have a desire to learn."

David Clark, journalism graduate of the 50's, says the first indication that he had received a fairly adequate education came when he attended graduate school at one of the Big Ten universities.

There, somewhat to his surprise (he had heard the cry "provincial" often at Tech) and much to his pleasure, he found himself competing successfully against students from many schools better known than Tech.

To Clark, this meant that Tech was indeed much better than he had thought, and the discovery was a happy one. "I think graduates of a younger institution are much better off going into their fields with a slight degree of apprehension than with a treacherous smugness which can play them false. Competition will show the truth in either case. And when is complacency ever heal thy?''

IN military service and in subsequent teaching at two universities, Clark has observed many college graduates educated at many institutions. He has yet to find one school of which all its

L

THE admission of a student to college is of concern to many persons: the student, his parents, guidance counselors, college educators, and friends. Foremost is the interest and welfare of the student himself.

In 1924, when Volume I, No. 1 of the "Texas Technological College Bulletin" was published, Dr. P. W. Horn, president, wrote: "There still remains the question which really arose first when we considered the question of the College-That-Is-To-Be; namely, whom do we wish to attend this institution as students?" To President Hom the answer was easy, namely "Everybody who wishes to attend and who can profit by the instruction to be given."

Today, as in the years past, it has been easy to attract those who desired admission. On the other hand, it is still somewhat of an uncertainty as to how to determine those who can profit by the instruction to be given. Experts have calculated (to some degree of accuracy) how to predict academic potential. However, there seems to be some measure of doubt hanging over the methods used to predict success in life. Tests are not available for comparing two persons with respect to their potential success in life.

THE entering freshman in the class starting September, 1961, will have submitted a record that indicates a sufficient background to justify admission. We will have more background infonnation on this class than we have had on any other entering class. We already know that the entering class in September has a higher scholastic average on the

Only The Future

College Board Examination than the national average. It is somewhat satisfying to know from this convincing data that Tecb is getting a proportionate share of the intellectually capable students who are entering college.

In counseling with a prospective undergraduate student, t h r e e points should be stressed: One, academic preparation; two, desire; three, maturity or self-discipline. As yet the process of learning is still much a mystery and colleges are not as well-equipped as they should be to evaluate potential intellectual power.

To measure academic preparation, the college reviews the high school record. In addition, nationally ;known tests as well as those administered locally are used to ascertain median by which the academic record can be evaluated. (No high school graduate has been denied admission to Texas Tech because of test scores.) Test scores can aid in making over-all studies of large numbers of persons, but the basic concern of education must be with the individual.

THE high school record and test scores give some objecttve measures · as to the student's ability to profit by the instruction to be given. Under current testing programs the test scores are sent to the student, his high school, and the college of his choice. This gives the student an opportunity to plan better during his senior year in high school. No doubt the test results affect the decision a student makes as to what college he will attend. Information that will measure desire is not available.

After many hours of counseling prospective stude-nts and parents, one comes to the conclusion that in some cases the parents have a greater desire for a college education for their children than does the son or daughter. Some students who drop out during the first semester will volunteer the information that, "My parents wanted me to go to college, but I really didn't think I would like it." Of course this is an unusual case and certainly is not true of the student who, in his own mind, desires to enter and graduate from Texas Tech. Many students have the desire to attend college but do not have the desire to make the sacrifices necessary to remain for a degree. Since there is no means of measuring this desire in advanGe, the college can only assume that the student who makes application for admission and presents an adequate academic record can profit from the instruction to be given. There is no way of predicting whether or not he will profit from his experience.

The third factor is maturity or self-discipline. Here again this cannot be measured with sufficient accuracy to justify the denying of admission to certain prospective students. Who can say what it will take to awaken certain people, or how soon one might find himself? Even though a student may not be as mature as one would desire when he enrolls in the fall, it is quite likely that some would survive the experiences encountered during the first semester at Texas Tech. Some do not, but they met the admission requirements and were afforded the opportunity to demonstrate their ability in com·· petition with others who also

qualified. What most students and their parents do not realize is that generally the bottom half scholastically of the high school graduating class seldom enters college. This places a student within greater competition than he has experienced in high school. If he has not already formed good study habits, he will likely be unable to maintain his former grade average his first semester in college. Both parents and educators should remind themselves that each student at each period of his career is a unique person with his own mental profile. Fortunately T€ch has been able to plan ahead and make room for those who qualify for admission, yet it is quite conceivable that someday students who do meet the admission requirements may have to be turned away. The chief reason would be the lack of money to provide an adequate faculty, staff, and facilities, for their immediate needs.

WHENand if such a time does come to Texas Tech, it will, by necessity, change the admission policies to the extent of selecting some and denying others. How does a college limit enrollment?. Who is selected? Who is rejected? This would mean building a fence to keep out people who have the qualifications and desire to enter. How tall such a fence should be would be decided by the philosophy of the faculty, administration, and the board of directors based upon how many students we could accommodate with the current and proposed budget. If the time should come when some are selected and others are rejected, it would be necessary to have a great deal

more information on each candidate. This would mean earlier applications and much more investigation of each applicant. It would change the personality of Texas Tech.

In the minds of some, admission and scholastic requirements con .. stitute the impression a college leaves with the public. Four classifications are used to express the impression: 1) Easy to get in to and easy to graduate. 2) Easy to get into and hard to graduate. 3) Hard to get into and easy to graduate, or 4) Hard to get into and hard to graduate.

Just where Texas Tech is classified or should be classified and who should make the decision has not been clearly determined. The exact position depends entirely upon the prejudice, experiences, and knowledge of the person giving the answer.

While the admission requirements at Texas Tech for the high school graduate have not changed rna terially since the first class was admitted, the requirements for graduation have gone through several changes that have strengthened its degree program.

CRANGES in admission require ments 1nust be announced well in advance of effective dates. For example, suppose Texas Tech would like to re quire t wo years of a forei gn lan guage for admission. First of all, many of the high schools today are not graduating seniors with two years of foreign lan g uage. Secondly, the colleges are not graduating a sufficient num her of certified public school teachers with a major in foreign language to fill such a requirement. If a crash program

were started to enforce this program, it would take several years to prepare the teachers to get them employed in all the public schools that send students to Texas Tech, and to allow a minimum of two years for the student to complete the course.

If the program were started to .. day, one can see that it would take years before the freshman class at Texas Tech would be prepared to meet a two year foreign language admission requirement.

The admission requirements for the student transferring from other institutions have been strengthened over the years. These requirements are not as strong still as some would desire them to be; nevertheless, they have follow-

IN August of 1960 a team of oil experts, selected and sponsored by the American Petroleum Institute at the request of the Department of State, toured a number of oil fields, refineries and petroleum research institutes of the Soviet Union. This visit took place under the U.S.-U.S.S.R. Exchange Agreement of November 1959, which provides for exchanges in scientific, technical, educational and cui tural fields. The exchange agreement was entered into in the hope that such exchanges would contribute significantly to the betterment of relations between the two countries, thereby contributing to a lessening of in tern a tiona! tension.

The delegation tra veiled about 8,000 miles inside Russia, visiting four refineries, four oil fields and five research and planning institutes and organizations. Our itinerary took us to Leningrad, Moscow, Baku, S talingrad, U fa and Kuybyshev. Most of the travel, an education in itself, was by air, but we also made use of trains, auto, bus and hydrofoil boat.

DURING our stay not all of our questions were answered, but we were allowed to see all that was asked for, although sometimes under rather difficult conditions. The exchange of information was relatively free and easy and it was apparent that our Soviet hosts were extremely anxious to display their know ledge and were eager to discuss problems of mutual concern. Admittedly, much of the progress which has

taken place in recent years in the Soviet oil industry has been based primarily on advances in Western technology. Those libraries which we visited were amply stocked with the latest United States' •. technical journals. A single issue perhaps, received in Moscow, is reproduced by photo-offset and hundreds of these copies are then distributed throughout the country. In addition, a vast abstract service offers a rapid dissemination of the latest scientific and technical writings to interested Soviet personnel. "But why not use Western technology," our hosts asked, "for we have so much to do, and if it saves time, we're all for it."

In the development of its petroleum resources, the Soviet Union stands today where the United States stood 30 years ago. Many major discoveries have already been made, but a great number are yet to come, and to accomplish this, the Soviet geologist will have the use of the very Ia test technology.

THE Soviet Union today is second only to the United States in the production of crude oil, having recently surpassed Venezuela. Its production has more than doubled in the past five years, and while continuation of this very high rate of growth is not likely to be sustained for the succeeding five years, the planned production of crude oil in 1965 is to be about three-quarters of United States production in 1960. It is probable that the economy of

the Soviet Union, even under its current rate of expansion, will not be able to absorb all of this production and that a considerable portion will be placed into inter. national trade. It is this aspect of the Soviet oil industry which draws the i nte rest of Western observers.

Increases in production of crude oil will con ti nue so long as such in· creases are needed to meet the requirements of the national econo- : 1ny. Curr e n Uy, and probably for a number of ye ar s to come, such in· creases ex te nd beyond internal needs and th e resultant surpluses 1 are bein g pJa ced in the interna· ! tiona! ma rk e t. It is probable that the U.S.S. R. will prove a formidable compe tit or in this field , for its enterp rise and willingness to barter are not matched at present : by the free \N O r ld.

The pr oduc tion of crude oil in 1 • ·Ithe So v iet T.'Jn ion is centered m the : area betw een the Urals Mountains and the V olga River. Known also as the Sec ond Baku, in deference I to the "fi rst " Baku, the prewar · center of th e oil industry, this area contains s on1e of the richest oil fields in th e world.

BO 'TH of these areas were vis· ite d by the United States del eea tion. We were shown '-' the full scon e of drilling operatJOns ·t toand were g iven the opportum Y watch th e \¥ell -publicized turbo· drill, the t oo l probably most re· "bl r the rapid de velop·spons1 e or Id'1 fie sment of t h e Urals-Volga 01 ' and the n ev; electrodrill, the per· (Con t in ued on Page B)

formance of which, according to Soviet engineers, exceeds that of the turbodrill. We were taken out on the Caspian Sea to inspect a typical offshore site with its· lengths of steel trestles providing a base for workers' housing as well as for the drilling of oil wells.

While this of course did not constitute a thorough survey of the crude oil producing operations of the Soviet Union, it nevertheless allowed the delegation to sa tisfactorily assess its level of competence. Outwardly, their operations present a rather shoddy appearance, broken windows in control buildings, lack of paint, broken steps and generally poor maintenance. But upon closer examination the equipment was performing satisfactorily and several excellent innovations were noted.

The labor input \\ as perhaps slightly higher than what the United States would normally require, but in answer to questions about this disparity, we found that the "extra" engineers and technicians were being trained for the time when they would be needed. Furthermore, their salaries were not charged to that particular function which they were performing, but presumably were written off in some manner.

Neither the Soviet approach to petroleum research nor the facilities available were impressive It was apparent from numerous conversations that a serious time lag existed between the laboratory development and field application. The implication was the field personnel resisted to a certain extent the introduction of new techniques and new technology. The technicians appeared competent but one sensed that this competence did not extend beyond their well-defined responsibilities.

THE delegation did not see

?ny operations

In the field, but evidence indicated that a rather wide-scale hunt for fuels was under way. The geophysical equipment on display at the All-Union Permanent In-

dustrial Exhibition in Moscow closely resembled their Western counterparts, but one suspected that these many pieces of equipment were merely display models. Searching for oil and gas in the U.S.S.R . is still a relatively easy job and much territory remains to be explored. Surface geology was responsible for the discovery of several of the fields the delegation visited, indicative of the fact that the Soviet Union still is in the relatively early stage of the exploration cycle.

Not so long ago the geologist in Russia who was responsible for bringing in a dry hole faced banishment to Siberia. That age of reasoning has passed. But pressure in one form or another to fulfill and overfulfill one's output goal is always present. Charts and slogans in stores, places of work, cafeterias, and along the streets exhort the citizen toward an even greater output, as the U.S.S.R. struggles to overtake that most highly developed capitalistic country the United States. Those successful are rewarded materially, those unsuccessful are denied these rna terial rewards and, in some serious cases, may lose their position

The delegation visited crude oil refineries at Kuybyshev, Baku, Ufa and Syzran'. The capacities of these refineries represented between 20 per cent and 25 per cent of total Soviet capacity to refine crude oil. The largest of these refineries, located at Kuybyshev and rated at about 300,000 barrels per day, compares favorably in size with the largest of United States' refining complexes.

THE output pattern of petroleum products differs sharply from that in the United States where the great demand for motor gasoline represents the major market. In the Soviet Union no such market exists and most of the petroleum products are in the form of diesel fuels and residual fuel oil, fuels for industry. The refining techniques employed to produce these pro ducts were standard and for the most part were direct copies of

those developed in the Unit d States. e

The general picture present d by the Soviet refining induste t cy was . no an Impressive one. The quality of construction and mainten_ance quite low and general refinery design lacked imagination and recognition of economy. Little c?ncern was shown for fire protection and for the safety of the ..: worker. The average worker lacked steel-tipped shoes and hard hats and his work habits reflected indifference toward good safety practices. Refining operations were greatly overmanned, but as in drilling operations, the Russians pointed out that these workers were being trained for the future and that this apparent excess would soon be absorbed. Probably most surprising to the delegation was the great number of women

"All my correspondence with Tech officials has been so friendly and helpful that these letters continue to back up my decision to attend Texas Tech this fall."

Such was the caliber of the replies received by the Ex-Students Association in answer to the Association's newest phase of student recruitment.

The new project, inaugurated this spring, called for personal letters to be sent to high school valedictorians and salutatorians throughout the state.

Tech administrators that Tech is now getting a quantity of students, but may be missing out on the quality students. This project was designed to put Tech in contact with the quality students

graduates can be said to be ideally educated. The point is this: are the facilities adequate, is the instruction competent, and does the student avail himself of the opportunities before him? In Clark's case, he feels the answers are "yes" to the first two questions. "As for the third, can anyone every say he did as much as he could have done?"

In reply to a question on the influence of the college upon his choice of profession, Clark answered that he felt there are a lot of students who attend a college for reasons other than because it is the best school in its field. "I was one of those, and I would have gone to Tech, probably, regardless of the caliber of its instruction."

At that stage, he did not know much about such things and feels lucky that others did know, and had worked to make the school as it was.

If he could repeat his college years, Formby would organize his study periods, spend enough hours each day to really learn his subject, and not look for the "easy"

graduating from Texas' high schools.

Names of the graduating honor students were taken from newspaper clippings supplied the Association by a clipping service.

Approximately 1,500 personal letters were sent to valedictorians and salutatorians congratulating them upon their graduation as an honor student.

The letter also contained information pertaining to Tech's residence halls, social activities, clubs an1 degrees obtainable at this school.

Included in the letter was an offer to send information concerning registration and housing to anyone who desired further information. A copy of the letter is reproduced inside the back cover.

courses. "In my case, I would take all the business education courses I could and try to equip myself for at least two professions or vocations "

ANOTHER important factor in a college career is called simply ''making friends.''

Recognize also that sad as it may seem, the truth is that the fellow who gets ahead and who makes a success and enjoys life is the one who WORKS There is no substitute for it and the person in college who gets that into his head while still a student is far ahead.

The final question, "What would you do differently if you were in college today?" brings from Clark a story with a moral which all students would do well to remember in this day of Sputniks and Russian cosmonauts.

To impress her students with the need for doing their best work, a teacher recently told her class that the time to start preparing for college was right then and there.

She noticed definite improve ment.

A. W. Hanley, BS ME, has been transferred to San Antonio as area Iandman with the Ohio Oil Co. He was transferred from Amarillo.

HAS the hue and cry about rising standards really reached that far down into the grades? "I don't think so-not yet," replies Clark. "But there's no denying that pressure is building. We see the evidence here at Cincinnati when we select editors and business managers for our student publications.

"This year, one- third of the applicants did not have the required C-plus average . To me that spells stiffening standards."

Editors of the Cincinnati daily newspapers were asked recently to recommend course subjects for a new journalism program at the university.

"Give them all the science you can," one editor said. He then asserted that the news story of the century is science. He wasn't asking that we make our young journalists scientists. He was only asking that we prepare them to cope with a world in which the gap be tween the arts and the sciences is widening, not closing.

"These incidents illustrate what I believe are the facts of life in college today. Competition is getting tougher. And there is more to

learn. Scientists I have known with the equivalent of the Ph.D. have been, almost without exception, better grounded in the liberal arts than their opposite numbers in the arts.

"'If I had known then what I know now' is really a phrase. What it really means is more often this: 'If I had known then what I know I don't know now.' And in the case of the liberal arts student, I believe the greatest area of ignorance is in the sciences. And this, in our world today, we can ill afford."

ed consistently the pattern for our own students who have had to meet new degree requirements.

The academic requirements today make it harder for a student to transfer to Texas Tech from another institution than it does for a Tech student to continue on· the campus. This is perhaps as it should be . First of all, the transfer student must be in good standing both in academics and citizenship at the college he last attended before he can be considered for admission to Texas Tech. In addition, he must also meet specific academic levels to be eligible for consideration. The exact level has been rising and perhaps it will continue to rise to insure that Tech does not become inferior to other institutions with similar goals and obligations.

THE student who enrolls in a junior college, following his graduation from high school, realizes that he must have a good record because he must transfer to a senior institution if he desires a bachelor's degree For thls reason most junior students do not make application for transfer until they can qualify. Very few junior college applicants are denied admission. Very probably this reflects the excellent

alism from the University of Texas. He attended Baylor University Law School and is a licensed attorney. He retired as chairman of the Highway Commission in 1959. His business career has included publishing newspapers and owning and operating radio stations in West Texas. He was president of the West Texas County Judges and Commissioners Association from 1939 to 1940. From 1937 to 1940, he was county judge of Dickens County and state senator from the old district 30 in the Lubbock area from 1940 to 1945. He has interest in Radio Station KPAN at Hereford, KFLD at Floydada, KTUE at Tulia, KACT at Andrews and KLVT at Levelland. Formby is frequently men-

counseling required at junior colleges to insure proper preparation of their students who desire to continue toward a bachelor's degree. The senior college usually counsels its students with the goal of completing graduation requirements on its own campus, with the exception of a few specified fields, and not with the idea of preparing the student to transfer to another school.

Senior colleges do prepare certain students to transfer to other specialized senior colleges or universities in such fields as medicine, law, veterinary science, theology, and others. Where the senior college is preparing a student for transfer in these specific fields, excellent counseling is made a vailable.

The out-of-state student who wants to be admitted to Texas Tech must meet all the requirements of the state resident, and , in addition, he must rank in the upper two-thirds of his graduating class. The foreign student presents an entirely different problem and many additional factors must be taken into consideration before he can be admitted. His academic record is important but so is his health and his financial status. His ability to adjust to life on the great south plains of Texas is also a factor. The reliability of much of the information becomes quite a problem to an admission officer. His ability to communicate in the

David Clark, '55 BA journalism, received his master's in journalism in 1956 from the State University of Iowa. Previously he had worked for the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal as a general assignment reporter and as a feature writer for the Lincoln (Neb.) Star. Before going to the University of Cincinnati in Ohio, he taught journalism at the University of Nebraska. At present, he is in his second year at Cincinnati as adviser to student publications which include the newspaper, yearbook, literary magazine and student directory. Clark also instructs in journalism.

English language is most important.

IN the fall of 1960, 9,178 students were admitted. Of this number, 3,030 were matriculating at Texas Tech for the first time, and 600 had entered other institutions first and chose to transfer. Of this number, 390 came from junior colleges. To predict how fast we will continue to grow is a question that will require the accurate evaluation of many factors. All factors that affect college enrollment must be considered to predict future growth. Some of the important factors are 1) Texas Tech's role in higher education in Texas and the nation; 2) The economy of the area in which Tech normally serves; 3) The publicity Tech gets from all phases of the institution; 4) The offerings available to the public; 5) The number of high school graduates and the percentage of high school graduates going to college; 6) The number of other senior institutions available to the public Tech normally serves; 7) The amount of money available to provide for growth; 8) The holding power of the students who initially enroll at Tech; 9) The admission requirements , and 10) The reputation as a first-class institution.

I! Century Club

Ce1ztury Club is an organization of exstudents and friends, founded on May 10, 1961, to aid and support Texas Technological College in its program for students, ex-students, and the state.

Objectives of The Club are: to serve Texas Tech; to promote scores of persons not supporting the College in a manner commensurate with their means to give a larger measure; to form a broad solid from which the annual Loyalty Fund will extend upward; and to gain proper recognition for Texas Tech College on a statewide basis.

Membership in The Century Club is based upon financial support of at least one hundred dollars ($100) per year through the Texas Tech Loyalty Fund. All gifts are tax deductible and any previous Loyalty Fund gifts in 1961 will count toward Century Club membership.

Members of The Century Club will be a distinguished group, coming together as guests at the annual Century Club Dinner. This event will be timed to coincide with the annual Homecoming celebration each fall.

Seal of membership will be a handsomely engraved certificate carrying an arrangement for attractive embossed seals to be added with each annual membership--a handsome recogn1t1on either for your office or home.

Tech's · First Negroes Summer Enroll For Second

The first Negro stp.dents in Texas Tech's history began · studies during the second summer session, following the decision of the Board of Directors announced July 14 that all applicants to the college would be considered equally.

The decision to admit all applicants equally in the future was announced by Lubbock's Mayor David Casey at City Hall. Casey had been authorized to make the announcement by C. I. Wall of Amarillo, chairman of the Board of Directors.

Wall issued a statement to the Associated Press after the announcement, saying:

However, much work -is going to be required, on the part of all concerned, if Texas Tech is to remain in the number two position and continue to uphold its standards at the same time.

If Tech can get the money to continue to expand its offerings, attract an excellent faculty and staff, and maintain the enthusiasm it has enjoyed from its former stu-· dents and the public, it will be able not only to maintain its present position but also can continue to grow in size, stature, and solidarity.

Present for the announcement by Casey was the Rev. M. T. Reed, pastor of the Mount Vernon Methodist Church in Lubbock and president of the Lubbock chapter of the National Association for the Adyancement of Colored People.

According to Reed, attorneys of the NAACP were preparing legal action concerning application of Negro applicants. Three Negroes had asked admission to the college this past year.

The decision of the Board followed findings that the original

It was also commonplace to see women repairing the street, digging ditches or laying brick. It should be poi:p. ted out, however, that the disproportionate use of women derives largely from an attempt to fill a labor void created by the high loss of young men during World War II.

Only passing concern was shown for product quality control at the refinery. The consumer must be content with what is available, for no other choice is possible. Despite these rather obvious shortcomings, the delegation believed that the refineries were performing their tasks in an adequate manner, and that the absence of frills and conveniences associated with United States industry is not indicative of any inherent weakness.
