MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Support
SUBJECT Senior Seminar
1. This memorandum transmits the full nine-week schedule
for the Agency's first Senicr Seminar, a roster of officers
selected to attend, a package of materials used at the Senior
Seminar Precourse Session on. 31 August, memoranda confirming
verbal requests for Messrs. Carl Duckett and to 25X1A
speak in the Senior Seminar,, and a request for your approval, in /'./
paragraph 5 , for Ip..a.s.rs William Crockett and
25X1A to visit to address the Senior Seminar.
2. The Senior Seminar schedule is reasonably firm, but we 25X1A
consider the attached version to be a preliminary effort. Except
for a few confirmations in the latter weeks of the course, which
we expect to have in hand by the time the course opens, the sub-
stance of the Seminar appears to be falling in place satisfactorily.
Speakers and panelists who have not yet accepted or been contacted,
or other arrangements which are still tentative, are indicated
by a question mark (?).
3. We are gratified that you will be addressing the course
in Block VII on the subject "The Support Services of the Future."
You will probably want to make some formal remarks and we plan to
elicit questions from the class which they would like to put to
you and pass these to you well in advance of your talk. Block
VII, which concludes the Seminar, focuses on the process of
managing intelligence and assessing the Agency's current posture
and future development. The subject matter is intended to en-
courage Seminar officers to think ahead and reflect on how we. can
do a better job and help make the Agency a more effective organi-
zation. 25X1A
4. The memoranda for Messrs. Duckett and - will formalize
their agreement to make presentations, as we have had in-depth
discussions with them on the substance of their coverage. Mr.
25X1A will address the class on 20 October on the topic of "The
Open Society and Covert Action" during the Block on Covert Action.
Mr. Ditckett has agreed to appear twice before the group; he will
discuss "The Soviet ABM Program: Intelligence Case Study" in
Block II on 1 October, and in Block VII on 19 November he will
cover "New Scientific and Technical Intelligence Problems during
