...gave them more information about the coverage of different topics within the core curriculum itself and now they agree that we meet the criteria." Kain argues that the APA believed the department did not meet the teaching staff criteria because it counted a faculty member as a planner only if he held a planning degree while CRP considers some of its members as planners because they have substantial experience in the field. Last fall, the APA came around to Kain's position and renewed its recognition of the department...
...third floor of the Executive Office Building across the street from the White House and for the most part out of sight and sound of the President. The first National Security Adviser was a kind of aide-de-camp to Ike, more clerk than policy planner. But the next thing we knew, he had moved across the street and was in the White House basement, close to the President's communications center, a lope or two from John Kennedy's ear.

This is not invalidated by the fact that the votes?and the market?can sometimes be manipulated. Capitalist bosses, for all their power, have far less real sway over people than Communist...
...trend for the future, according to State Department Security Planner Lambert Heyniger, will be to design "smaller, less conspicuous buildings, possibly raised off the ground to make them that much more difficult for attackers to enter." Many new embassies have already traded aesthetics for security considerations. The new Swedish embassy in Cairo is a forbidding concrete structure with a single street entrance, narrow slits for windows, and a protected inner courtyard backing on the Nile?for quick escape by boat if necessary. More than anything, it is said to resemble Hitler's bunker. Finally, another comparatively hardhearted approach gaining adherents...
