Office of the president<br />

Liberty, Missouri 44140<br />
Dear Dr. Shapiro:<br />
(LETTER HEAD)<br />
The purpose of this letter is to introduce a college student counseling<br />
program sponsored by the U.S. <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong>. We believe that it is<br />
important that every individual be fully apprised of the opportunities<br />
presented by military service in a commissioned status. This is of<br />
particular interest to the <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong> since we depend almost<br />
entirely on civilian college graduates to fulfill our officer requirements.<br />
To this end, it would be desirable if one of the <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong> Reserve<br />
officers now on your administrative or teaching staff were to be<br />
designated to act as a counselor in these matters. In the event that<br />
this plan meets with your approval and that of the Reserve officer<br />
concerned, they will be given complete support and information by this<br />
Headquarters and the <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong> officer selection team in your area.<br />
Participation in this program is entirely voluntary and there should be<br />
little inconvenience experienced by the Reserve offIcer selected.<br />
Although there is no pay involved, the officer may be eligible for<br />
promotion and earn retirement credits while acting in this capacity.<br />
Naturally, we desire to select only the most deserving of our inactive<br />
Reserve officers for this assignment. Therefore, it would be greatly<br />
appreciated if you would submit nominations, in the order of<br />
preference, from the enclosed list of <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong> Reserve officers<br />
attached to your institution.<br />
Encl:<br />
(1) List of Reserve officers<br />
Sincerely,<br />
G. JENKINS<br />
Colonel, U.S. <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Corps</strong><br />
Director<br />
