r pi ' . J- I 8 B SUNDAY, DECEMBER 29. 19B3 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON City of Intellect Is Goal o! UCs President Kerr By MARK I-. SCHNEIDER BERKELEY. Calif. (UPI) You can learn how to make wine at the University of Cali fornia or, if you can squeeze into his classroom, you can learn physics from Dr. Edward Teller, father of the H-bomb. A thousand students stood in line all night once for a chance to enroll the next morning in his survey course. The University of California Is hig the nation s largest uni versityand it is getting big ger. It is scattered over seven major campuses and 70 loca tions all told and has 57,000 full time students more students than Wheeling, W. Va., has people. The university's enrollment has doubled since 1953 and will double again by the early 1970s. The driving force behind UC Is Dr. Clark Kerr, its president, a 52-year-old former Pennsylva nia farm boy. Despite UC's growth and progress, Kerr is not satisfied. The universities of America, he says, have a duty for nation al service. They must link arms with industry to create an "ide opolis." They must become the "prime instrument of national purpose. "City of Intellect" This is Kerr's goal a "city of intellect" a useful city. Half of the University of Call fornia's $47 million income comes from federal grants and contracts. The university under took 2,707 research projects last year for 90 federal, stale and municipal agencies. It is no coincidence that Cali fornia defense industries re ceived 41 per cent of the De fense Department's $12.3 billion spent for research, develop ment, testing and evaluation. Many of them are here because UC is here. The quality of the faculty may help explain this. The faculty has 12 Nobel Prize winners more than all of Russia. They include the re cently named Mrs. Maria Goep pert Mayer, professor of phys ics at the San Diego campus, the first woman to be selected lor the physics prize since Ma rie Curie. The number of (acuity mem- heiB in the National Academy of Science considered a yard slick of a faculty's scientific status moved ahead of Har vard in 1960 In lead the nation. (lovrrninenl Worker One of four of the universily's 5,ol) iaculty members spends some of his time working for government agencies and other public organizations. A number of farming and harvesting devices have been developed at UC's Davis cam pus, considered one of the world's leading agricultural and research centers. Davis researchers developed an elongated tomato that can be picked mechanically, A new slicing device promises canned sliced tomatoes soon. Meanwhile, UC Is breaking ground and tradition for two new campuses at Irvine and Santa Cruz. ' The Sanla Cruz campus Is a revolutionary concept even for the University of California. To insure lop priority concern for undergraduates, who sometimes become Ihe forgotten men at big universities, an Oxford-type residential college is under con struction. Students will live wilhin Ihe colleges where they attend classes. Oilier major expansion Is un der way at San Diego, where the campus was founded In 1912 as Ihe Seripps Institution of Bi ological Research. It has devel oped a school of oceanography mil instituted a school of sci ence and engineering. Additions are going up or are planned at Berkeley, the, origi nal UC campus founded in llliiH; the San Krancisco Medical Cen ter; l.ns Angeles, Davis, River side and Sanla Barbara.
