College representative S. Douglass Cater, Jr. '46 will meet in New York next Tuesday with the 24 other American college and university delegates to the International Student Conference at Prague. This pre-conference meeting is planned to enable the delegates to discuss some of the issues before the actual gathering at Prague, to be held August 17 to 31.
The delegates will attend a welcoming reception on July 9 given at the Hotel Diplomat by 1,000 students of New York City. Guest speakers at the meeting will be Stoyan Gavrilovic, Yugoslav delegate to the UN, Edouard Lindeman of Columbia University, and Lisa Sergio, radio commentator.
To Plan Policy
After the reception the delegates will devote the remaining six days to discussion. Some of the topics will be internationalization of the atomic bomb, federal aid to education, aiding of exchange students, relief for foreign students, and formulating American plans for international student organization.
Cater, former Editorial Chairman of the CRIMSON, is secretary of Phi Beta Kappa and a member of the Student Council and the Liberal Union, and was chosen as Harvard delegate on May 24 after a University-wide competition.
The conference at Prague will be the first International Student Conference to be held since the war. Over 50 countries will be represented, and approximately 400 delegates are expected to attend.
