which was started last week. 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.
