To work out an introductory undergraduate course in history and culture dealing with the "Third World," that is, that section of the world's population which is neither European nor American, though represented in important numbers within the population of both Europe and America. To plan the establishment in a country outside the United States, possibly Jamaica, of a field center near good archives, where students can be trained in the techniques of recovering material artifacts and collecting oral traditions. To bring to the campus as consultants a group of historians, anthropologists, and scholars from other disciplines.
