Between 10 and 15 seniors will definitely teach in an African country next year, according to Dean Monro.

Although many problems remain unsolved, including the source of the financing for the project and the country to which the students will go, the Administration has determined the general scope of the plan.

Applicants will be screened this term, and those selected will take a comprehensive seminar for the remainder of the Spring. During the summer the University will conduct some type of orientation program.

"We'll be able to tell the particulars of the plan to interested people very soon," Monro declared yesterday. He cautioned that working out the details of the program will require an involved process including correspondence with Washington, other universities, and African nations.

But some details are already fairly certain. Only seniors may go on the program; the seminar will utilize all available Faculty and University resources; the students will teach in Africa for two years.

According to rumor, all students would go to Nigeria, but Monro said other nations are still under consideration. Tanganyika is reportedly one of them.

Among factors which delayed the final presentation of the plan were various Washington proposals including the recently published Millikan plan for an "International Youth Service Agency."

The Millikan plan, prepared for President Kennedy by Dr, Max Millikan of M.I.T. this fall, relies exclusively on projects like Harvard's. Monro said he feels the University program falls in perfectly with Millikan's proposal.

Particulars which still await solutions include the requirements for selection of candidates, the method of orientation, and the project's relation with other universities. More than half a dozen colleges and universities have already asked Harvard for information about the program.

Polls Indicate Response

Polls of the University indicate that there is sufficient enthusiasm to fill a program several times the size of the one now projected. More than 10 per cent of the student body would definitely like to teach in Africa, according to the survey made recently by the Harvard-Radcliffe Committee for a Youth Service Organization.

The Faculty Committee to Send Teachers to Africa will resolve many of the remaining problems of the project. The Committee will reconvene next week, according to Leon D. Bramson, instructor in Social Relations.
