The classroom had 411 outstanding high school students from all 50 states plus schools overseas represented in the Na tional Student Body. Presidential Classroom is an educational pro gram for juniors and seniors in high school which introduces student leaders to the people who make and influence the policies of the federal govern ment. The Classroom presents an overview of “Power in Washington” through the students meeting with decision makers from the three branches of government, the diplomatic community, the news media and the business and labor sectors. The students met with many policy makers, including Elliott Richardson, Senior Partner, Milbank, Tweed, Hadley and McCloy; Senator Nancy ^ • TERRI PLONK Kassebaum (R-Kansas), Harry Hurwitz, Minister of Informa tion, Embassy of Israel; Representative Jack Kemp (R-New York); Richard Cohen, Columnist for the Washington Post* the Honorable Angela Buchanan, Treasurer of the United States; North Carolina Senators Jesse Helms and John East; and Anne Compton of ABC News. The Classroom was chartered in 1968 at the recommendation of President Lyndon B. Johnson. The program promotes citizen responsibility and civic awareness through a forum for independent thought. Since the program receives no government funding, students depend on rais ing their tuition from local civic groups and their schools. Students are selected by their schools to attend Classroom. In addition to the program for high school students, the Classroom offers a program for college students and profes sionals called the Federal Forum.
