This program is actually part of the national program of the navy de partment to set up a training pro gram for the procurement of of ficers in the peacetime navy. The objective of the program, according to Capt. Matthews, is to provide a basic naval education together with a general liberal education. Since graduates of this program may eventually serve as line officers, engineering officers or supply officers in the navy, the emphasis upon academic sub jects outside of the required naval courses will be in the general na ture of the liberal arts, engineer ing, and business administration. Navy students are as much a part of the university as other students, Capt Matthews stated. They are free to participate in any campus activity and already many of them are doing so. 186 Trainees.
