1'm sure many current students and prospective
students of AGSIM are asking themselves, "What
does this unique school offer me?" "Will it supply
what is needed for an international career 1" "Is
it worth the price 1"
It may disappoint many when I say there are no
simple answers. Each person must look at this
from his/her own perspective and carefully weigh
the values which will result, based upon his/her
own exclusive value system, goals and objectives.
First of all, let me make clear that the only reason
anyone should come here is to prepare themselves
for an international career. There are many
traditional graduate schools of business which can
provide much more breadth and depth in business
management education. The fact is that we are just
not a school of business administration. Our stress
on language skills and on imparting knowledge of
cultures, beliefs and values precludes singleminded
devotion to business management education.
For a domestic business management career with
emphasis on a functional field like marketing or
finance, a good MBA degree is the answer. We
strongly feel that conversational ability in a second
language, knowledge of other cultures, and a sound
exposure to international management principles
and practices is the ideal educational preparation
for the aspiring international manager.
We think that learning a language using our method
provides not only a vocabulary but a way of thinking
regarding another culture. Our courses in international
studies further insights into the way other
people view things; their political attitudes, tlieir
religious beliefs. Topping this off with a good
knowledge of international finance, marketing,
accounting, advertising, economics and management
provides the graduate with the beginnings of
an international perspective which will make him
or her a valuable asset in the international operations
of multinational corporations, foreign
service organizations, departments and ministries
of commerce, and entrepreneurial activities in
If, after objective evaluation, the student - feels
comfortable with this tripartite approach to international
management education ~nd with the
prospect of an international career, then he or she
has come to the right place and the money spent
is a sound investment in the future.
Accreditation committees, graduates living and working over·
seas, American and foreign corporations - all agree that the
very heart and brightest strength of Thunderbird's three-part
curriculum is its Department of Modern Languages.
General Barton Kyle Yount, at the end of World
War II, envisioned Americans trained in local
languages versed in foreign customs, fortified
with practical as well as theoretical management
expertise functioning as the United States' finest
export to the rest of the world.
AGSIM is the tangible result of that VlSlon. It
is unique among institutions conferring advanced
degrees. The Master of International Management
requisites are equal training in language, area
studies and world business.
AGSIM language offerings have expanded from
two in 1947 (Spanish and Portuguese) to seven
(Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, English
as a second language, Japanese, and Chinese).
Arabic (or possibly Russian) is slated to be the
eighth language offered, in 1975 or 1976.
The "300A" courses teach the sounds and feeling
of the language. The "300B" level courses add
extensive reading, writing and analyzing skills.
Throughout, native instructors stress the foreign

culture and encourage their students to develop
language-thought empathy. After learning to express
themselves in everyday and professional
situations, in "400" courses the students become
skilled enough to philosophize and socialize in
the language.
Resident off-campus programs, designed to give
students the opportunity to see first-hand what
living in a foreign country is really like, are
increasing. Currently, Thunderbird offers a summer
program in Guadalajara, exchange semester
in Japan, Winterim in Bogota, and is planning
a program in France similar to that in Guadalajara.
DR. FRANK JACKLE was Chairman of the Modern
Language Department for fifteen years. Handpicked
by Dr. William Shurz, he began teaching
at Thunderbird in 1949, and he succeeded Dr.
Howard Tessen as Chairman in 1961. However,
in 1974, he "retired" to return to teaching, which
he admits is an integral part of his life. Dr.
Jackle's degrees express his wide interests: a
BA in Spanish and English; MAs in Administration
and Spanish; a PhD in Portuguese and LusoBrazilian
Commenting on how students have changed over
the years, he explains: "We got great satisfaction
from watching the individual progress of the outstanding
students we had in the early days. They
had stars in their eyes, but they combined work
and play while they were here and the facultystudent
interaction was fantastic. The increased
number of students now precludes that closeness.
However, entering they are better-prepared in
foreign languages. Almost half waive their language
requirement. They have had better and longer
preparation in language since Sputnik and greater
exposure to other cultures through school, church
and Peace Corps travel."
"Teaching is coaching. Most of us function 'adequately'
at 60% of our ability. The teacher's
role is to 'push to perfection,' to encourage 100%
performance." This seems to be how he himself
functions. (Did you take "Business Communications"
under Dr. Jackle while you were at Thunderbird?)
Current Chairman of the Modern Language Department,
JORGE VALDIVIESO, is a gifted and experienced
teacher, a warm and dedicated man.
The middle of seven children of a prominent
Ecuadorian family, Dr. Valdivieso already held
a law degree from Central University in Quito
"We have maintained the integrity af aur teaching methads and
seen our graduates become top-flight U.S. representatives, both
personally and professionally, abroad." - Fronk JackIe.
Some basic AGSIM linguistic innovations remain, time-proven
through almost thirty years: native-language teachers; oralaural
instruction exclusively through the first key months; class
size limited to a minimum of four and a maximum of eight students;
grammar as an adjunct to conversation; fluency in a
second language a requirement for graduation; instruction
culminating in certification for spouses.
"Nothing is impossible in this world provided a person wants to
do it. 99.9% of our students successfully learn another language."
- Jorge Valdivieso.
when he came to Minnesota to learn English and
to teach college Spanish.
A recommendation from Lea de Noronha to Frank
Jackle resulted in Thunderbird offering him an
instructor's position in 1963. Dr. Valdivieso then
started his formal education over, this time in
English: a BA in Education; MAs in Education
and Romance Languages; a PhD in Spanish, with
minors in French and Latin. He proudly points
out that his math-teaching Ecuadorian wife, Teresa,
has followed the same U.S. educational path along
with him and has now completed her doctorate
and is teaching Spanish at Arizona State University.
"I am fascinated with the flow of life, how students
struggle and succeed. And I am pleased to be
a catalyst in that process."
"What I do is a JOY, not a job," declared BILL KING,
head of AGSIM's English as a Second Language
program. "I really feel I was born to teach,
and I love the challenge of tailoring each class
to the needs and deficiencies of its members.
Often, a class of eight will have students of four
or five nationalities and cultures."
"Foreign students now constitute 20% of our student
population, and President Voris has forecast that
they will make up almost half within the next
few years. Only here can they use English as
a second language to fulfill their language requirement
for a MIM."
Mr. King holds a Master of Linguistics degree.
He feels the strength of this innovative program
to be its staff and resources: Dr. Jackle, Alice
Johnson and Zed Lanham.
From its inception in 1951, through 1974, the
Key Man Program has trained 650 people from
over 150 companies in Spanish, Portuguese, French,
German and English as a second language.
This program is an exhausting one. Students attend
four sixty-minute classes every day, Monday
through Friday - three in conversation and one
in fundamentals of the language they are studying.
Daily preparation requires roughly twice as long.
They receive area orientation in a two-hour session
once a week. Evenings and weekends, they prepare
their dialogues, review their classes and try to
unwind. "Participants in these courses present
the same problem found in the regular language
classes - language backgrounds range from lots
to none, "says Key Man Director,LARRY FINNEY."An
added discouragement is the natural slowdown
"Almost half of aur foreign students enter from foreign universities,
and based on our testing most need to take Engl ish as a
second language." - Bi" King.
"The Key Man Program is unique and it is effective. Some of our
most outstanding T-Birds are products of this program." - Larry
in the speed at which we learn - particularly
between the early thirties and the early fifties.
The hardest job we have as Key Man instructors
is keeping participants' spirits up. We try to
show them that we really are understanding and
feel compassion for the intensified problems they
face, from the very nature of the program."
There is increasing interest in two diverse areas:
Portuguese, from the opening up of the interior
of Brazil; and English as a second language,
from the increased volume of business the Orient,
particularly Japan, is doing with the U.S.
The classes are run for a minimum of four, a
maximum of eight, students. The charge for the
six-week program is $2400 for the man, $1800
for his wife. The eight-week Japanese and English
as a second language course cost $3200 and $2400,
respectively. This includes all instruction, materials
and books, board and room and incidentals.
This summer, AGSIM will lose three of its favorite
faculty members, who rank second and fourth, respectively
in terms of years of teaching service: the
Castro y Silvas and Gerald Richter. AGSIM will still
be ''AIFT,'' however, as long as Paul Wilson (to be
featured in the Fall Bulletin), Frank Jackle and
Larry Finney continue on.
Larry, a '52 Thunderbird graduate himself, has
taught Spanish Grammar continuously here since
1952 (except for one year off during 1969-70). He
says, "The 4777th verSe is coming up. With the grace
of God and continuing good health, I should have sixteen
years left of going 'Hablo, Hablas, Hable.'"
He states that his greatest gratification is greeting
former students - particularly those who had difficulty
in Spanish grammar - when they visit AGSIM
on home leave and hearing of their Successes.
Larry can still be recognized by the long towel sticking
out of his back pocket (beach towel size for summer).
He reports that he "still likes his senoritas
and senoras." From Ross and Leroy's he has progressed
to the Chimneys , where "special sessions
are held during the cocktail hours from three 'til
seven or however long Finney lasts."
Outside of the cocktail hour, in addition to teaching
the Spanish Grammar courses, Finney does all
classroom and final scheduling each semester, directs
the Language Department for at least half of
Summer Semester and is Director of the Key Man
Yes, Thunderbird is changing. The campus is
crowded, with summer enrollment over 800; the
entering GPA is up, the average age is down; one in
five students is now female, one in four is of foreign
nationality. The Associated Students Legislative
Council President, RIAD MAREI, is Palestinian;
the Vice-President, ULF NOFELT, is Swedish;
the Secretary-Treasurer, BETH PERRY, is an
American. The editor of DAS TOR is an Argentine,
Riad Marei, as the majority of foreign nationality
students, is older than the average American student,
entered with an undergraduate major in Business
Administration, is convinced that AGSIM's
MIM is his passport into the international business
career he is determined to pursue, plans on returning
to the area of the world he came from, and is
committed to strengthening AGSIM as a force for
good-will ambassadors.
Riad was born in Palestine and grew up on the West
Bank in "a very close Arab family." His parents
and fourteen brothers and sisters still live there,
but Riad has not been able to visit them for the last
ten years . His education has been self-financed: he
worked for the Qatar government to finance his education
at internationally minded Northeast Missouri
State University at Kirksville, Missouri: then,
he worked one year in Chicago to pay for his MIM
training here. He has given free classes in Arabic
for two semesters at Thunderbird as well as functioning
as the principal elected student officer. He
values the many friends of different religions and
beliefS he has made and says "people learn from
each other, as well as from courses."
Upon graduation in August, he will go to Kuwait.
There he will work with TOM KENAN '66, who came
back to AGSIM and recruited Riad and two other
T -Birds to work for one of the largest investment
and import-export companies in the Middle East
(Alghanim Company).
He earnestly believes in the fellowshop of man. "1
look forward to the day when men of good faith,
regardless if they be Christian, Moslem, or Jewish,
can work and live together in peace and harmony."
Riad lives his life by these precepts: "Nothing is
impossible in the world. Never give up. Work for
what you believe. Be optimistic. Look to the future.
Praise God for this day."
During the latter part of April Dr. William Voris
returned from a trip to the Mid East after a day
spent in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia to visit a friend and
President of the University of Petroleum and
Minerals in Dhahran, Dr. Bakr Abdullah Bakr. Dr.
Bakr was not happy with the results obtained at the
English Language Institute, a part of the Freshman
Orientation Program of the University, and asked
Dr. Voris to send two English Language consultants
from Thunderbird to evaluate his program.
Dr. Voris asked me as former Chairman of the
Modern Language Department, and William King,
Professor and Director of the English as a Second
Language Program at Thunderbird, to make the
trip. Bill and I flew to Dhahran, on the Persian
Gulf, via London, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Beirut. In
Beirut we were just in time to observe the fighting
going on between the Lebanese, Palestinians, and
Israelis. We spent five days in Dhahran observing
the operation of the English Language Institute and
the overall program in petroleum, minerals and
business administration at the University.
This beautifully planned university opened its doors
on September 22, 1964. From a first class of 67
students, the University has grown to reach an enrollment
of over 1500 students. The vast petroleum
and mineral resources of Saudi Arabia pose a complex
and exciting challenge for scientific and
technical education. The University is financed by
Saudi Arabian Government grants, by donations
from oil companies, and by other foundation grants
and donations. The faculty is multinational:
American, British, Middle Eastern Arab, Saudi
Arabian, and other citizens. All instruction is in
English, and it is anticipated that the technical
library will be predominantly, though not exclusively,
in English.
Thus it is imperative that the program of the
English Language Institute be of the highest quality.
Bill and I have made several suggestions for improvement
of the ELI program and hope Dr. Bakr
will begin to implement these recommendations.
On the trip home, we avoided the difficulties in
Lebanon by flying to Kuwait and then directly
to Paris and New York. The whole trip was interesting,
exciting, and fruitful--a real experience for
internationally minded professors.

Two nights were spent in Beirut. Beirut is a
beautiful city. As the plane came in for a landing in
the late evening, the many residences and buildings
graCing the gentle slopes of the hills in the background
reminded one of the Berkeley Hills and the
Bay Area of San Francisco. The waves coming in
from the Mediterranean Sea were gentle and warm
and conducive to relaxing on the veranda of the
Carlton Hotel in Beirut.
Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, is true desert of the type
found near Indio and Palm Springs, California. The
barrenness of the landscape is broken by the
hundreds of oil wells in production, capped, or
being burned-off to avoid the excessive gas. As the
plane came in late at night, one saw hundreds of
flares inland from the coast of the Persian Gulf.
The temperatures during the day reached 115 ~ but
the air began to cool by 5:00 p.m., and the evenings
were very pleasant.
Among the highlights of the trip were the two· days
spent in Paris. Paris is beautiful, clean, exciting,
bustling--and expensive. But one can find reasonable,
comfortable quarters, and inexpensive entertainment.
The new Charles De Gaulle Airport is
an architectural marvel. It is cirCUlar, four
stories of ultra-modernistic design with moving
ramps from one level to another. The whole layout
is an accolade to French imagination and efficiency.
But, it's good to be back--heat and activity--at

A banner, "Welcome to Camp T-Bird," greeted new
and returning students as they came in the front
entrance Spring Semester. This JOHN BARR '76,
banner was the inspiration for the semester's most
innovative student enterpreneurial effort. Hustlers
SERGE PINTO and THIERRY ROUVIER of France
marketed American LARRY BRADLEY's design -
"Camp T-Bird" printed over a Bugs Bunny, cactus,
and soccerball background - by forming a corporation
and selling 30 fellow students $5 shares.
With the capital thus raised, they had 186 T-shirts
printed up - and sold all of them on campus at $3.25
They then "liquidated" the corporation. Shareholders
found their return on investment to be: an
obsolete stock certificate; a $2 capital return; a
yellow, blue, peach or gold "Camp T-Bird" shirt;
and, a $.10 "dividend."
"Pigeon" is presently introducing a new line of
camping equipment by providing T-Bird campers
with an array of tents as of this summer. (Add one

AGSIM's local booster group, Friends of Thunderbird, has
honored Doris Paine with their first Honorary Life Membership
and entitled their Scholarship and Loan Fund with
her name.
During her two years of dedicated service as founding
president, Friends has initiated semesterly welcome parties
for new students, rescue transportation when they arrived
stranded many miles from campus, hospitality for foreign
students and visitors in members' homes, a monthly newsletter
informing members of the speakers and special
events on campus, a Scholarship and Loan Fund, and they
have also donated a permanent collection of Barry
Goldwater's photographs of American Indians for the
Keyman Lounge. Doris is not only a Friend of Thunderbird,
she is a relative: She is the wife of JORDAN PAINE '47
and mother-in-law of HANS NORDSTROM '74. Happily,
Doris will remain active in the organization. One project
she is working on is The Great International Hot Air Balloon
Race which may ascend from campus next November. So,
you alums or friends who are balloonists or wish to sponsor
a floating billboard, get in touch with Doris!
At the May meeting, follOwing a wffet featuring hot and mild
curries and a panel discussion by students from India, Doris
handed over the gavel to the new President, Mary Beth (Mrs.
Eugene) Tompane. Virginia (Mrs. Tom) McSpadden will be
First Vice President and Gail (Mrs. Thomas J.) Dale will be
Second Vice President. Among continuing committee heads
is Else (Mrs. Lee) Baker, Foreign Student Hospitality.

From July 19 to August 2 AGSIM will play host to the
third annual visit of touring Japanese international management
students from the Institute for International Studies
and Training (Boeki Kenshu Center), Fujinomiya, Japan.
This year 37 Japanese participants, representing the major
Japanese multinational firms, will undertake a special
training program at the Thunderbird Campus consisting
of lectures by AGSIM professors and guest speakers from
the Phoenix community, tours of Phoenix area rosiness
concerns, and interaction with the student body.
Dr. Marshall Geer, Dean of the Faculty, is in charge of
the academic program, with local arrangements under
the direction of Mr. Gates Davison, Director of Public
Affairs, with the assistance of an advisory committee of
Professors Andrew Chang and Martin Sours. Third semester
student Mike Kelley is student coordinator.
The Japanese trainees have been coming to Thunderbird
for three years as part of their year-long program at
lIST. The relationship between the two institutions has
matured to the point where the program will become
known as the AGSIM--IIST joint seminar. In addition,
Thunderbird students studying Japanese now have an opportunity
to study at the Japanese campus during the
spring semester of each year.
When you know in advance approximately when you will
be viSiting AGSIM, please let me know. Many students
have expressed interest in learning from your experiences
and in seeking your advice because you already have
the practical expertise they hope to add to their MIM
degrees later.
You probably are interested in some specific world, financial,
business and/ or language areas. I shall try to schedule
class attendance for you if I know when you are coming
beforehand. You might even enjoy guest lecturing in one
of the courses.
Bernhard Edgar '49, of St. Niklausen/Lucerne, Switzerland,
for example, while here on a planned visit, audited a
Chinese class, guest lectured an International Studies class,
and met with several "alumni in residence" in an interchange
of ideas on the European economy. His summary-"
Great personal satisfaction."

One hundred eighty-three Thunderbirds graduated on May
22, 1975.
AL MIOSSI, '48, delivered the 60th commencement address,
entitled "The New Direction for International Banking."
Following the address, President Voris presented AI, who
is Executive Vice PreSident - Continental Bank in Chicago,
with the Jonas Mayer Award for 1974-75.
JORGE VERDUZCO, a naturalized U. S. citizen, received
the Barton Kyle Yount Award. Accepting the award, Jorge
stressed the Significant change which has come about
since General Yount founded the School in 1946. The
emphasis of AGSIM is no longer on preparing U. S. citizens
to work abroad -- it is now training an international group
of professionals to interact in the global community. This
graduating class dramatically illustrated this trend: of
the 183 new alumni, 43 are from 23 countries other than
the United States.
Other awards of the evening included the Wall Street
Journal Award for excellence in Accounting, which went
to CATHERINE COOPER, and the Alfred Knight Award
for scholastic excellence, to HUGH WARREN. (Dec. '74.)
The Inter-Ad team of JAMES S. ROGERS, MARCO PLONSKI,
MARGOLIS, MICHAEL J. BLUTH and GEORGE POE, AdVisor,
won first prize for their creative, dramatic, planned
introduction of "MORE" cigarettes into the Brazilian
market. Five extremely well-devised and highly developed
presentations also captivated the over-flow audience in
the auditorium on Inter-Ad Day.
Selected liberal arts seniors and graduates in the College
of Liberal Arts at the University of Arizona will be permitted
to transfer to the American Graduate School of
International Management in their senior year. Courses
taken here can be used toward the requirement for their
Bachelor's degree at the University; and, if students elect
to continue on for their MIM degree, they may apply a
potential maximum of twelve hours of work undertaken
at AGSIM to the normal forty-eight hours required for
this degree.
The arrangement will be exclusive for three years.
THE THUNDERBIRD is published in the Spring, Summer and Fall. After
each mai ling, clase ta twa thausand magazines are returned to us as "ad·
dress unknown" and "undeliverable."

A most encouraging trend is the growing number of enlightened
companies which match employee contribltions to
AGSIM. An elite group of companies express further commitment
to our goals by DOUBLE-MATCHING AGSIM
alumni gifts. Companies currently dOUble-matChing for our
alumni include: Cyprus Mines, American Express, The
Ford Foundation and Fluor, Inc.
Your Editor publicly salutes JOSEPH M. KLEIN, who regularly
and generously contribltes to the Alumni Fund, and
his company, Cyprus Mines, which backs him up through its
strong, double-matching program. Joe, the reCipient of the
Jonas Mayer Award in 1974 for Distinguished Achievement,
is Executive Vice President - Industrial Operations for Los
Angeles-based Cyprus Mines.
Cyprus Mines is a diversified natural resource company
which mines, processes and markets non-ferrous and
ferrous metals and talc and other industrial minerals,
manufactures wire, cable and related electrical products,
and engages in bllk cargo ocean shipping.
The active partiCipation in higher education of Cyprus Board
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Henry T. Mudd and
his father, the late Harvey S. Mudd, were the inspiration
for the Cyprus Matching Gift Program for Higher Education
established in 1964, which allows any director or
full-time salaried employee to have his gift to any U.S.
private, degree-granting, accredited institution matched
below the $1000 level, double-matched at the $~OOO level.
We encourage you to determine if your company matches
or double-matches your Alumni Fund contribution, magnifying
it 100-200%.

New Master Plan for Campus
FollOwing its decision to reject the offer of Carefree
Developers to relocate the AGSIM Campus in Carefree, Arizona,
the Board of Directors agreed to take necessary steps
to proceed without delay with the improvement and rebuilding
of the Glendale Campus. As a first step toward this new
campus development, Mr. Clay Bedford, a member of the
AGSIM Board of Directors, arranged for Educational
Facilities Laboratory (EFL) to develop a preliminary
master plan for the construction of a new campus on our
present site. ELF contracted with Urban Design Associates
of Pittsburgh which has designed several university
campuses, to undertake the development of the preliminary
master plan.
Two representatives from Urban Design Associates visited
AGSIM April 9-11. During their stay they interviewed
representatives of the faculty, students and administrative
staff concerning the optimum location, design and functions
of new facilities. Subsequent to their visit they developed
what they termed a theme for a Master Plan incorporating
the following concepts:
1. Construction of new facilities within the limits of the
present built-up area of the campus.
2. Phased construction so that the school can continue to
operate in both old and new buildings as construction
3. Identification of first phase construction priorities which
a) A multi-purpose auditorium-classroom building
which would contain a permanent capacity of 540
seats in the auditorium and ten large classrooms
in the rear (for 40-50 students). When necessary
the front walls of these classrooms could be
removed to provide ten theatre boxes and increase
the seating to approximately 900.
b) Construction of an office building for the Alumni
Office and Career Services Center to relieve the
overcrowding now taking place in the library and
allow full utilization of that building as a library.
c) Construction of four new dormitories to begin to
remedy the problems caused by outdated facilities
currently occupied by students.
4. Maintaining the scale of existing structures in any new
construction. It was proposed that the intimate scale of
campus with its one story buildings, covered walkways,
trees, lawns and shrubs should be maintained.
5. Development of a functional traffic flow. It was proposed
that, as much as pOSSible, new construction should
enhance the flow of pedestrian traffic in a logical
sequence and that classrooms, offices, social foci and
dormitories should be Situated to accomplish this.
6. Clustering of functions. It was proposed that all faculty
offices should be located in a single building, near the
classrooms in order to facilitate interaction among departments
and to facilitate access to faculty members
by students.
7. Social foci. It was proposed that social foci be established
at key locations around the campus to enhance
the already close interaction among students and faculty.
Such foci would include student Offices, Dining Hall,
student lounge, Coffee Shop, Health Services Center,
Nursery, Post Office, Bookstore, barber shop, a crafts
area, Pub and several other facilities.
8. Dormitories. It was proposed that all dormitories with
the exception of the East and West Apartments be phased
out and replaced. In addition it was proposed that
housing be provided on campus for 80 percent of the
student body including an international village containing
apartments with COOking facilities for married
students with children.
Further meetings among student, faculty, and administration
representatives and a local architect resulted in modifications
of the locations of various blildings, however work
on the plans for the auditorium complex are continuing.
Below (or above) is a reproduction of the preliminary
Master Plan. We would appreciate your comments and

Over twenty Seattle area alumni met with BERGER &
MABEL ERICKSON June 14th at Jonah and the Whale
restaurant and then adjourned for· coffee and conversation
in the recreation room of the BART HARTZELLS. Bart
wrote: "Our alumni reunion was quite successful. Berger
gave a very good summary of the expansion plans at
Thunderbird and an account of enrollment, courses being
taught, finances, and what long-time faculty members are
doing." Berger added, "It was a warm, friendly, very
enthusiastic meeting. It was the consensus that such meetings
should be held regularly, annually or perhaps semiannually."
During the discussions, BOB BRQWN suggested that AGSIM
inform alumni more specifically about current admission
requirements and placement trends. GERRY MURPHY suggested
that Alumni Counselors invite their interested
interviewees to future alumni gatherings.

alumni to bring their friends and rosiness acquaintances
and get firm attendance commitments by requiring ad~
vance paid reservations. These tips paid off on June
7th. Attendance for the dinner, meeting, and tour of the
facilities at the Los Angeles Trade Center was 129!

especially their kindnesses. We also believe that these
gentlemen are typical of Thunderbirds everywhere who
have an awareness of the economic and social benefits
to be derived from this kind of help for the underprivileged"

For true chocolate lovers
We experimented immensely with flavor to make this popular lip balm for soft, chocolate-orange flavored lips. We mix Chocolate Whipstick by hand with a lip-soothing infusion of oats, beautiful almond and wheat germ oils, plus beeswax to protect lips from dehydration If that sounds a bit boring, worry not; we livened it up with real chocolate, vanilla absolute and orange oil. Delicious and good for you, which is a rare and lovely thing.
- For dry, cracked lips: Chocolate Whipstick is our thickest lip balm, ideal for dry or sensitive skin.
- Now, more flavorful!: strong> With a new formula that we make at lower temperatures so the flavor is stronger and more delicious than ever!
- Preservative-free: Whipstick doesn't contain any water or infusions so we're able to make it preservative-free!
