United States Senator
Claiborne Pell is Chairman of
the Senate Subcommittee on
Education, and has been
increasingly involved with the
activities of higher education
in this nation. Unlike many
politicians who spend most of
their time looking at the
problems of life, the Rhode
Island Democrat has focused
his attention on the study of
solutions, and has devoted his
substantial energies toward
seeking constructive solutions
toward the manifold problems
of education in this nation.
In the November issue of
Change magazine Senator Pell
has a most optimistic article
on future prospects of higher
education in the United
States. He began his report
with these words: “These are
truly exciting days for higher
education in our nation.
“That thesis may seem
strange, for we are told almost
daily in the popular press and
in professional journals that
higher education is in trouble,
that the problems far
outnumber the solutions, and
that a crisis situation now
exists.
“Yet in this atmosphere of
gloom and doom, when so
many colleges and universities
are described as ‘on the brink
of bankruptcy’, I think it is
important to examine the
situation from a more
optimistic angle...”
Positive Signs
While recognizing the
enormous array of obstacles in
the field of higher education,
and the increasing
complexities of our total
society, the distinguished
Senator is still optimistic that
constructive means can be
found to improve our
circumstances. He says: “All
of us who are most deeply
concerned with the future of
higher education must seek
ways to meet the problems
with meaningful and creative
solutions. For those of us in
the Congress, the outpouring
of concern for the future of
higher education has coincided
with the necessity for a
reauthorization of federal
programs of assistance to
higher education...”
Senator Pell reviews some
of the problems of higher
education today, looking
particularly at the rapidly
increasing costs of providing
post-secondary education in
this nation, and discusses
several possible approaches for
providing financial assistance
to colleges and universities
from federal tax funds. He
also reviews policy matters,
and several of the more
practical alternatives which
have been given serious study
by the Congress in recent
years, particularly in this
current session.
In tracing what has been
done in 1971 in the Senate, he
says: “ The Subcommittee
on Education and the full
Committee on Labor and
Public Welfare after it, a bill
that contained these two key
provisions:
“First, an entitlement of up
to $1,400, from which a
family contribution rate is
subtracted. Second, a plan for
institutional aid that has the
aid following the grants to the
students.”
Strong Support
The most significant Senate
version of this bill was passed
by that body the first part of
August without a single
negative vote. Senator Pell
describes the landmark
legislation in these words: “It
contains the first major
revisions of federal higher
education legislation since
1965. More important, it is
the first piece of federal
legislation that the United
States has a responsibility to
provide some form of
post-secondary education to
all students, and, at the same
time, has some clear
responsibility to aid the
institutions providing
education.”
At the same time that the
Senate was passing Senator
Pell’s far-reaching legislation,
the House of Representatives
was handling an entirely
different version. When the
two different bills were
completed, it became
necessary to have extensive
committee meetings and
conferences to thrash out the
differences between the two
versions. This process is still
continuing as this column is
being written. Most educators
and those public officials most
concerned with the future of
higher education in the United
States feel that some strong
legislation will ultimately
result. Senator Pell himself
said, in his magazine article,
“It will be a vital bill,
answering some basic
questions and incorporating
some fundamental decisions.
‘‘ln answering these
questions and making these
decisions, we in the Congress
need the advice and counsel of
the education community and
the general public. And as we
move toward important
conferences, I call out most
fervently to (educational
leaders) be they associations
or individual institutions, to
speak their mind, to lobby for
those solutions which will
most effectively solve the
problems we are all so well
aware of.
“And, regardless of our
technical differences, I believe
we all share a clear
commitment to the full
opportunity for all youngsters
to pursue an education
beyond high school. What we
ask is for all those who share
that commitment to step
forward to share their wisdom,
impart their support, to work
together-if you will, to see
that goal become a reality.”

it out with scissors or a single
edge razor blade. Next paste
on velvet to complete effect
and use black or red marker
to emphasize outline. Use
these Christmas cutouts on
packages, for tree ornaments,
window decorations or party
favors.
Small children can draw
pictures on trays. Give a pre
schooler a box of crayons and
he will go right to work. The
turned up edge of a tray
makes a natural frame. Wrap
finished work as a gift for
grandmother.
When you think of holiday
gifts, think of Formpac’s
foam trays. When shipping
fragile objects, pack in a box
with handfuls of polystyrene
foam made by breaking up
the trays.
So try these decorations
and make your holiday just a
bit more fun. When you shop
at your local supermarket,
save the foam trays made by
