University Gives
Steel Fellowship
The University, recently named
a participating institution in the
United States Steel Foundation
Fellowship Program, has chosen
Jens Joseph Robinson, a Neah
kah-nie high school teacher to
receive the University’s $4,800
two-year fellowship.
Robinson, one of the 80 U.S.
Steel foundation fellows in the
nation, is chairman of the sci
ence department and a chemis
try teacher at Neah-kah-nie High
School, where he has been a
member of the staff since 1960. He
also serves as assistant to the
superintendent of schools of
Neah-kah-nie school district 56.
tasbilshcd since Feb. 1, 1964. It
is designed to salvage high school
dropout students who do not pos
sess the necessary skills to get
jobs on their own.
The screening for the trainees
is done at various employment
agencies throughout the United
States.
The program is currently prov
ing successful; however, there
are still many problems, Shcllen
barger said.
When the boys come to Tongue
Point they are usually rated 100
per cent failures by high school
standards.
They have a bitter attitude
which is the product of approxi
mately 16 years of failure at
home, school, and jobs, he add
ed. i
Most of the boys need to be
toned down socially, and about 45 ]
per cent of them are Negroes
The boys have an extreme desire
to get along with others, he said,
and they are eager to learn.
The Tongue Point Center cur
rently has three programs to j
aid the boys in their vocational
training. They have about 800
boys chosen from 200,000 appli- j
cations. Out of the 800 boys 20 i
to 30 receive diplomas and are |
sent to their jobs. "The Tongue
Point Job Corps program cer
tainly cannot cure poverty,” Shel
lenbarger concluded, “it cannot
reach enough boys rapidly j
enough.”

productive.
At the present time, many
large institutions often submit
requests for five times more
money than they receive. Almost |
all of these big-volume research
schools can and will expand,
given the funds to do the job.
When money is sidetracked
to small colleges experimenting
with research, the result is a
slow down in the degree of the
nation's technological advance
at a time when speed is impor
tant. ft is incredible to believe
that a college which has a small
research facility with limited
resources can do a study as
efficiently as a school with a
well-developed and coordinated
program which can be expanded.
Research requires excellence,
not mediocrity, and the small
school cannot offer excellence.;
Let the small school concen i
trate in other fields and leave
research to those schools which
can handle it.
