Nebraskan Staff Writer
"The model cities program is just
another hoax to give the people
something to do rather than riot,"
according to Roger Katan, New York
architect and educator.
In a speech at University High
Auditorium Friday Katan said that
the model cities program was design
ed to replace urban renewal, its
emphasis is to be on planning by the
community.
However, giving communities the
job of planning for themselves is a
false situation, he said, because
depressed communities don't have the
technical know-how and manpower to
plan.
Katan continued that another pro
blem with the program is that funds
allocated for ten programs are now
being spent for 140.
It is because of these existing
situations that Katan became involved
in "advocacy planning," he said.
"In advocacy planning the client is
the community," he continued. This
gives the architect an added
responsibility in that he must work
with the community to push plans
through the various barriers in their
way.
The French educated architect told
an audience of about 100 that he
became Interested in advocacy plan
ning in 1964.
At this time he was working on
plans for a transportation system in
Philadelphia. However, he also had
some friends in ?ast Harlem.
A small community settlement
house in Harlem was trying to rebuild,
but didn't even have the money to
plan. Katan volunteered to help these
people with their planning.
lie detailed the many problems
that arose in the planning and funding
of the project. Interracial tensions and
pressure from the central housing of
fice were the largest hurdles, he said.

However, the project was finally
pushed through in a form acceptable
to the community, Katan added.
He explained that as well as helping
the community technically, it is
necessary to "bring the guy above
who is doing what he thinks is best
for you down and let him know what
you think Is best for you."
The concept of advocacy planning
has carried over into Katan's work
as an educator. He now teaches at
Pratt Institute in New York City and
Vassar College in Poughkeepsie,
N.Y
Many of the students in Katan's
architecture classes at Pratt work
with the East Harlem planning com
mittee, he said. Here they learn the
practical process of planning as well
as theory.
Katan continued that the program
evolved because of the desire of the
students to "get involved in reality."
They can offer something to the com
munity while learning, he said.
Since laet -all, Katan -has been
working "In"V similar program at ,;
Vassar. To teach a class on "Issues
of Urban America" he decided to
"take the students to the Issues," he
said.
He continued that his class worked
with the Model Cities agency in
Poughkeepsie. The program there
badly needed technical help, he add
ed. The class of 22 girls was broken
down into eight groups, Katan said.
Each of theso then investigated som
part of the community.
Since the fall, the group involved
in the work has increased to 35.
Recently, the results of the studies
were published and are being used
by the Model Cities Program.
He added that it is only by working
with communities technically and
allowing them to communicate more
easily with distant planners that
urban problems will bo solved.
