INSTITUTE F O R D E F E N S E ANALYSES (1) The University of Illinois has been advised informally that it will be considered for membership in the Institute for Defense Analyses, a nonprofit Delaware corporation created in 1956 for the purpose of promoting the public welfare and the advancement of scientific learning by making analyses, evaluations, and reports regarding matters of national security for the United States of America. Through its membership of educational institutions, the Institute represents a reservoir of technological talent in the nation's scientific community available to assist the federal government in its application of the scientific method to the solution of broad problems of military policy and strategy. The Institute operates principally under government contracts, but a few research projects are carried on which originate internally. Membership does not entail any financial contribution, although educational institutions who are members are expected to make personnel available from time to time for work on specific projects. The founding members of the Institute for Defense Analyses were the California Institute of Technology, Case Institute of Technology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, and Tulane University. These have since been joined by the University of Chicago, Columbia University, University of Michigan, and Pennsylvania State University. Membership in the Institute for
