Original Supporter

Mr. Selden indicated that he himself had
been one of the supporters of the resolution
moving for the end of degree credit for ROTC.
He stated, however, that he has changed his
mind since then.

"The committee members showed." he
added, "great flexibility in their views and the
discussion proceeded on a highly objective
plane."

Mr. Selden concluded by saying that the
issue is "too emotional to find any quick and
easy solution to it."

Joel Gardner, former president of the
Jefferson Party, stated that he felt that as it
exists now "the ROTC program deserves no
degree credit."
