DEAN RUSK While their Army parents take USAFI correspondence courses and spend evenings on nearby campuses, Fort Ord youngsters attend three elerrientary schools and a spanking new junior high school on Federal land here. The new Joseph W. Stilwell elementary school boasts an enrollment of 884, while 728 boys and girls attend Fort Ord ele­ mentary school and another 324 learn their three R's at Fort Ord •III School. Fort Ord III soon will move into new quarters. It will be renamed General George C. Marshall School, after the late World War II Army leader and former Secretary of State. Dedicated only last month, the Roger S. Fitch junior high school each day draws 995 youngsters to its ultramodern class­ rooms. These four institutions will be joined in 1963 by a 1500- student high school, to be built on the old Fort Ord Village site near the city of Seaside. In a yellow frame building at Second Avenue and Second Street, the efforts of older Fort Ord residents to enrich their lives through learning are coordinated. This is building 1049, the Education Center. Here, hard­ working counselors preside over almost unlimited educational opportunities. Education is a big part of Fort Ord life, and offi­ cials at the center cite some impressive figures to prove it. In the past six months, assistant education director Stanley Matheson said, some 6000 men and women partici- .^^^^^^_^_^^^^^_ ^^^^^^^^__ pated in some phase of the Army's General Educational De- ~*^1A:A^^^^II^^^^^^^^I ^^^^H^HBt;% JN / velopment (GED) program. - :OTB!BHBI^B^^^H ^^BHW f / More than 750 are currently taking USAFI correspondence courses in high school, college and technical subjects.

Upon passing a five-part High School GED test in English composition, social studies, natural sciences, literature and mathematics, the student earns the valued docu­ ment. Proof of a high school education or its equivalent is ex­ tremely helpful in qualifying1 for certain service schools, as­ signments or promotions. Many state departments of educa­ tion recognize the High School GED test and will grant cer­ tificates of high school equivalency to those who pass it. The Army considers a man as having had one year of col­ lege when he passes a four-part College GED test. Scores are entered on a serviceman's record, and some colleges grant credit to students who have passed the test. If a student fails the GED test, he is given the chance for two retests. Right now, 85 unit-selected noncommissioned officers and specialists are taking classes during duty hours. These students are trying for a high school certificate, entrance to a service school or reenlistment in a desirable slot requiring more educa­ tion. FORT ORD PANORAMA PAGE FIVE

Specialist Verish resides with his wife Arlene in Carmel, guage and area studies. Though a typical weekday evening finds as many as 75 men and women studying or taking GED tests at the Edu­ cation Center, other Fort Ord personnel range farther afield in quest of knowledge. One of these is Master Sergeant Harry F. Tartt, of the 1st Brigade public information office. Twice a week, Sergeant Tartt drives 120 miles to San Jose State College and back. There he is taking graduate courses in 17th Century English literature and linguistics. Only six units short of his master's degree, Sergeant Tartt recently was elected to Epsilon Eta Sigma, the English honor society on the San Jose campus. The boom in education here has surprised even experts at the Education Center. "It wasn't too very long ago," one of them said, "that the Army was trying to get men to reach only a fourth-grade level of education." At least one Fort Ord unit, the 68th Aviation Company at Fritzsche Army Airfield, has found that the desire for know­ ledge is contagious. Seven months ago, the 93-man outfit embarked on an all-out education drive under its then commanding officer, Major Frank J. Sutor, and First Sergeant Raymond N. Kamunen. Today, 68 men Have a high school education or its equivalent. Twelve others have been to college. Eleven more are currently studying for high school or college credit. "The two remaining men, new in the unit, will begin their studies by the end of this week," Specialist Fifth Class W. B. Reynolds, training NCO, said.
