CIA GRADUATES OF SENIOR SCHOOLS
INTRODUCTION
This report presents information about all of the CIA officials whose
attendance has been sponsored by the Agency at the following senior schools
during the years shown:
National War College
1949-1964
Senior Seminar, PSI
1958-1964
Army War College
1952-1964
Naval War College
1951-1964
Air War College
1952-1964
Industrial College
1952-1964
The report begins with a brief cannentary, then presents a separate TAB
for each school in the order listed above. Each TAB contains:
(1)
A short background note on the school and comments about
the CIA students who attended.
(2) A class roster, arranged chronologically, with a brief
resume on each student showing: his grade and ass' at
at the time he attended the school, his subsequent assign-
ments, and his present grade and assignment.
(3)
Information about the distribution of graduates among the
Directorates of the Agency, and a special note about those
who have resigned or been-separated.
(4) The promotion record of graduates.
BACKGROUND
In 1948 CIA obtained permission from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff to send one officer each year to the National War College. From that
beginning came a systematic program involving the selection and sponsorship
of career officers at all of the senior military schools and, since its found-
ing in 1958, at the FBI Senior Seminar. (In addition, CIA has also treated
the Harvard Advanced Management Program as a "senior school" and sponsored
26 officials there.) This highly selective external training program was con-
ceived as a key element in the Agency's development program for senior career-
ists. And it has employed systematic annual quotas in the management of the
program.

Procedures used in selecting candidates for the senior schools have
evolved through the years. From 1949 to 1956 candidates applied in open com-
petition to a panel (appointed by the Director of Training for most of this
period) that recamended the final selections (through the Career Council
during most of the period) for DCI approval. After 1956 candidates no longer
applied for senior schools; they were nominated by the Deputy Directors.
The screening panel was dropped in 19557' and this function assumed by the
Career. Council. Then in 1 , with the abolis>xnent of the Career Council,
the task of screening candidates from among those nominated by Deputy Direc-
tors and other Senior Officials was given to an ad hoc committee chaired by
the Director of Personnel and composed of a represen ative from each of the
Deputy Directorates, plus the Executive Director and the Director of Training.
In 1963 this ad hoc committee evolved into the Training Selection Hoard,
chaired by the D1ctor of Training, which has current responsibility for
screening senior school candidates.
CTARY
Since 1949 CIA has sponsored the attendance of 137 officers at the 7
senior schools (including Harvard). All but 20 of these officers are still
with CIA. In the statistical tables that follow an effort will be made to
show:
(1)
the extent to which each Directorate has taken advantage
of the training and developmental opportunities offered
by the senior schools;
(2) the present distribution, by grade and career group, of
the graduates currently employed in the Agency;
(3) the reasons why 20 graduates have left the Agency.

Present Distribution of Senior School Graduates
The 117 senior school graduates still with CIA have undergone a few
switches in career groups since they attended:
DCI has gained 3 ])S members
DDS&T has gained 7 13DI members
DDP has gained 5 members, 3 from DDI and 2 from DD8

y Graduates Have Left CIA
The 20 CIA officials who left the Agency after having graduated from
one of the 7 senior schools did so for the following reasons:
8 - better career opportunity in another Federal agency
5 - better opportunity in private industry
3 - terminated by CIA
2 - resigned after reduction in grade
1 - disability retirement
1 - retirement for age

Another Perspective
In view of the outstanding training and developuenta~l opportunities
offered by the senior schools, and the very restricted student quotas avail-
able to CIA, the natural conclusion is that the Agency should invest these
opportunities with exceeding care. Has it? Obviously, no conclusive answer
to that question is possible.
However, it is interesting to compere the numbers of senior officials
who have been "eligible" for the schools with the numbers who have actually
gone. For this comparison we have selected all supergrade employees who on
31 December 1963 were 40-54 years of age and have served with the Agency at
least 5 years except; medical officers, and individuals employed under can-

ditions of cover or security that precluded consideration for senior schools.
The number of male GS-15's meeting the same age and service criteria have

Recap
During the past 16 years, CIA has sponsored the attendance of many out-
standing officers at the 7 senior schools. In reviewing the attached TABS,
it is difficult, however, to avoid the conclusion that a much closer tie to
the Agency's personnel development program could have been achieved in our
selection processes. For the real question is not whether we selected good
candidates to attend these schools, but rather whether we selected our beet.

CIA GRADUATES OF THE NATIONAL WAR COLLEGE
(1949 - 1964)
BACfl ROUND
The National War College was established in 1946 to assist in preparing
career officers in the military services and the State Department for posi-
tions of broad responsibility in their respective departments. From the out-
set, however, the student body (of about 130 a year) has also included a few
representatives of other agencies such as NSA, Commerce, BOB, etc. CIA ob-
tained permission for one of its officers to attend in 1948 and has had an
established quota since that time. In 1951 the quota was set at 3pper year
where it still remains despite several attempts to increase it slightly.
Admission requirements at NWiC call for candidates between 35-45 years of
age who have a college degree or its equivalent and hold the grade of GS-14
or higher. (In practice, CIA generally considers only candidates GS-15 or
higher because military participants are very rarely below the rank of full
Colonel.) The course is for 10 months, beginning each August.
CO 4M WT8
41 CIA officers have now attended the National War College, 33 of them
having been sponsored by DDI or DDP. Seven of the graduates are no longer
with the Agency. The 34 who remain represent an impressive group of senior
officials. The group includes the Inspector General, 3 Assistant Deputy
Directors, 2 Assistant Directors, 1 Deputy Assistant Director, the Deputy
General Counsel, 4 key station chiefs, and 11 other officials of supergrade
rank.
While there have been some noticeable differences in the rate of advance-
ment among graduates following their attendance at NO., the group as a whole
appear to have been enerally well selected. Only one obvious exception ap-
25X1A pears who was terminated by DDP.
Clearly, the DDI has been the most aggressive Directorate in taking ad-
vantage of NWC, both in the numbers of students sponsored and also in their
competitive selection. DDS has sent the fewest students, preferring to make
relatively greater use of other senior schools.

CIA GRADUATES OF THE SMIOR SItT+IINAR IN FOREIGN POLICY
(1958 - 1964)
BACIQIROUND
In 1958 the Foreign Service Institute organized a Senior Seminar in
Foreign Polite to prepare officials of the State Depa.r1 men and other foreign
affairs agencies "for positions of high responsibility in policy recanmenda-
tion and execution and in executive management roles at home and abroad."
25 members are admitted to each class which begins in August and extends for
a full academic year; 17 of these members are Foreign Service Officers, 1
comes from each of the military services, and the remainder are civilian
employees from State, USIA, CIA, AID, or other agencies. Since the school
began, CIA has had an established quota of 1 student per year; however, this
has now been raised to 2 beginning with the 1964-65 class.
Within the quotas cited, students proposed for the Senior Seminar must
be: senior Foreign Service Officers, military officers with he rank of
Colonel or higher, or civilians G8-15 or higher.
CC ENT8
Because of the relative newness of the Senior Seminar and the restricted
student quota available, only 6 CIA members have thus far completed the
course. All have come from DDP and each appears to have been chosen on a
strictly competitive basis. All graduates have remained with DDP, and their
assignments and progression since graduation indicate that the group is a
strong one. Even though very little time has elapsed since the first member
graduated, 3 of the group have already been promoted.

CIA GRADUATES OF THE ARMY WAR COLDS
(1952 - 1964)
BACIC ROUND
The Army War College, founded around the turn of the century, exists
to "prepare selected officers for command and high level staff duty" and
"to advance inter-departmental and inter-service understanding." Until
1955 the college was operated in Washington but has since been located at
Carlyle, Pennsylvania. By 1963 it could count a total of 4,444 graduates.
Classes consist of about 200 members, 5 of wham are civilian officials of
State, CIA, USIA, and NSA. Since 1952 CIA has had an established quota of
1 student per year and in several instances has been able to add a second
student.
Admission requirements at AWC call for candidates 35-45 years of age
with the rank of Lt. Colonel or Colonel or civilian grade 08-14 or higher.
The course is for a full academic year beginning in August.
18 CIA officials have completed the Army War College, 9 of them having
been sponsored by DDI, 5 by DDP, and 4 by DDS. All but one of the group
are still on duty in the Agency. Selection to the Army War College has
apparently not been as competitive as that for other senior schools, for
the records of its alumni are rather unimpressive. Only one, the first to
graduate incidentally, has reached supergra&e, and only 6 others are GS-15.
So far, therefore, AWC has played a relatively minor role in the Agency's
executive development pi-ogram.

CIA GRADUATES OF THE NAVAL WAR COLLEGE
(1951 - 1964)
25X1A
25X1A
BACIMROUND
Founded in 1884, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, claims
to be the oldest institution of its type in the world. The "long course" to
which CIA sends members began in 1911. Annual classes of about 160 contain
members of other U.B. mill .ta,ry services and civilian agencies as well as
senior officers from the navies of other "free world powers." CIA has had an
established quota of one student per year since 1951.
Admission requirements at NWC call for candidates 35-45 years of age
with the rank of Commander or Captain or civilian grade G8-14 or higher.
The course begins in August and continues for a fu11 academic year.
CQI]TS
13 CIA officials have completed the Naval War College, 8 of them having
been sponsored by DDI, 3 by DDS, and 2 by DDP; all but one are still on duty
in the Agency. While the records of our Naval graduates are somewhat better
than those of their counterparts at the Array War Hollege, they are neverthe-

71A GRADUATES Off' THE INDUSTRIAL COLLEGE
(1952 - 1964)
BACIQfFROOND
The Industrial College of the Armed Forces, founded in 1924, is managed
by the Joint Chiefs of Staff as a senior military educational Institution.
Its curriculum considers "all phases of national and international political,
ecanaeic, and military relationships and their relation to U.S. policy and
strategy." The faculty and student body are drawn from all the military ser-
vices "on an equal basis." In addition, since 1949 a few civilians from
selected agencies have been included in the annual classes of abet 160 mem-
bers. In 1952 CIA obtained an established quota of one student per year and
since 1958 has been able to send 2 or 3 students per year.
Admission requirements call for military rank of Lt. Colonel or Colonel
or civilian grade G8-14 or higher. The course begins in August and covers a
full academic year.
CC
21 CIA members have attended ICAF, 13 sponsored by Dl and 8 by DDI;
only 15 are still with the Agency. For the first 9 years that CIA sent stu-
dents to ICAF they came only from Logistics and selected offices of MI.
This may well have resulted from our failure to appreciate the broad scope of
ICAF's program. In any case, our selection methods provided too restricted a
competitive base and, as a consequence, sane of our early candidates were not
very strong.
