It was also a time of change in American society, economics and world politics. Following World War II, American soldiers needed education for jobs, and we needed DEPARTMENTS our country to move from a war to a peace time economy. The GI Bill, crafted by Topekan Harry Colmery, was created to help achieve these goals. 2 CALENDAR The GI Bill is one of the most notable achievements for Jerry Farley OF EVENTS our country and higher education. This was a jump start for the technology boom that has subsequently propelled our economy and for the creation of ALUMNI FELLOWS a vast middle class, which values education. 4 Washburn’s and other universities’ enrollments swelled, and the institutions changed to accommodate the returning GIs. The average age of students 6 WASHBURN increased dramatically. They were more mature and more demanding in the ENDOWMENT classroom. Faculty adjusted their teaching styles to accommodate a no-nonsense “we are here to learn” attitude. Some of the more frivolous pranks and activities CAMPUS NEWS were modified for a few years. Their 14 AND SPORTS “One generation Washburn education certainly changed these students, but most assuredly, the helping the other — GIs changed Washburn. 20 CLASS NOTES that is the triumph A couple of decades after World War II, as a part of the baby boom generation, of our country and I went to school on the GI Bill. Taxpayers of Washburn’s post helped fund my education and that of millions of others. I became sufficiently World War II era.” educated to pay that gift back in the taxes I now pay. I know there are plenty of others in the Washburn family, but for the gift of the GI Bill, would not be where they are today. Others were helped by the National Defense Student Loan programs as well. I believe the taxpayers made a good investment in me and all the others. We should not sacrifice our commitment to education at a time when international competition will be won by the most educated. We are a better country if each generation understands the benefit of helping others. One 14 generation helping the other — that is the triumph of our country and of Washburn’s post World War II era.

  • Ringworld 01 Ringworld Larry Niven CHAPTER 1 Louis Wu
    Ringworld 01 Ringworld Larry Niven CHAPTER 1 Louis Wu In the nighttime heart of Beirut, in one of a row of general-address transfer booths, Louis Wu flicked into reality. His foot-length queue was as white and shiny as artificial snow. His skin and depilated scalp were chrome yellow; the irises of his eyes were gold; his robe was royal blue with a golden steroptic dragon superimposed. In the instant he appeared, he was smiling widely, showing pearly, perfect, perfectly standard teeth. Smiling and waving. But the smile was already fading, and in a moment it was gone, and the sag of his face was like a rubber mask melting. Louis Wu showed his age. For a few moments, he watched Beirut stream past him: the people flickering into the booths from unknown places; the crowds flowing past him on foot, now that the slidewalks had been turned off for the night. Then the clocks began to strike twenty-three. Louis Wu straightened his shoulders and stepped out to join the world. In Resht, where his party was still going full blast, it was already the morning after his birthday. Here in Beirut it was an hour earlier. In a balmy outdoor restaurant Louis bought rounds of raki and encouraged the singing of songs in Arabic and Interworld. He left before midnight for Budapest. Had they realized yet that he had walked out on his own party? They would assume that a woman had gone with him, that he would be back in a couple of hours. But Louis Wu had gone alone, jumping ahead of the midnight line, hotly pursued by the new day.

TilE VIETNAM WAR ON TRIAL: TilE COURT-MARTIAL OF DR. HOWARD B. LEVY ROBERT N. STRASSFELD• This Article examines the history of a Vietnam War-era case: the court-martial of Dr. Howard B. Levy. The U.S. Army court-martialled Dr. Levy for refusing to teach medicine to Green Beret soldiers and for criticizing both the Green Berets and American involvement in Vietnam. Although the Supreme Court eventually upheld Levy's convicti on in Parkerv. Levy, ill decision obscures the political content of Levy's court-martial and its relationshipto the war. At the court-martialLe vy sought to defend himself by showing that his disparaging remarks about the Green Berets, identifying them as "killers of peasants and murderers of women and children," were true and that his refusal to teach medicine to Green Beret soldiers was dictated by medical ethics, given the ways in which the soldiers would misuse their medical knowledge.

  • WHY EARN the GREEN BERET? Darry D Eggleston
    Operation 20th SFG History ©1 WHY EARN THE GREEN BERET? Darry D Eggleston As a Private, E-2 (one rank up from a basic trainee), I was assigned to the Company A, 2-148th Infantry (Dragoons), 2nd Brigade, 3rd Armored Divi- sion, in Gelnhausen, in what was then called West Germany. Gelnhausen is a town in the Prussian province of Hesse-Nas- sau, on the Kinzig, 27 miles E. N. E. of Frankfort am Main, on the railway to Bebra (map). It was a quiet, little, romantic town that I used to enjoy walking around when I had earned time off. Even though I had to wear my Class A uniform, I was treated with re- spect by the villagers. When I had enlisted, the recruiter had promised me that I would see Europe. In a way, he didn’t lie. I got to see Hoenfeld, Figure 1 — Gelnhausen, Germany, about in Bavaria — a desolate mountain 27 miles north-northeast of Frankfurt am training area (map, page 5). I Main saw this less-than romantic scene mostly from the vantage point of a the prone position in snow. We were not allowed to dig foxholes in this training area. I got to see Grafenwoehr, in Bavaria, another more desolate training area (map, page 5). I saw this scene mostly from the vantage point of laying in snow-covered ground. (We were not allowed to dig hoes at Grafenwoehr.) Even as I rose in the ranks to become a sergeant, I was always dis- appointed in the way we were treated by our superiors.
