E., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303 Phone - 524-8091 April 29, 1969 INTRODUCTION The Atlanta Urban Corps has been the dream of many far sighted, progressive individuals in the City of Atlanta for over a year. It is unique in that it represents a cooperative effort of students, government and business to bring bright, movitated young people into an intimate involvement with Atlanta's municipal government and intercity problems, The primary emphasis is placed on interim employment of college students in metropolitan government and non-profit agencies. The problems of a metropolitan city are vast; evidence the summer riots, the general dissatisfaction voiced by all sectors of the population, The Atlanta Urban Corps is attempting to involve students in positive solutions to the metropolis; the contributions which will come from students working with city and non-city agencies will be foundations for the improvement of existing programs and the creation of needed ones, Unique to the Atlanta Urban Corps is the involvement of students in administrative and policy making decisions. The chellenge before students today is positive and mature A U C ATLANTA URBAN CORPS 30 Courtland Street, S. E., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303 Phone - 524-8091 administration of their own methods of bringing about needed change. The Urban Corps offers the students the opportunity to prove his competence in this area. WHAT IS AN INTERNSHIP? An Internship in the Atlanta Urban Corps is a relevant, challenging job in an agency in the Metropolitan Atlanta area. Interns will be used to help solve the problems of urban Atlanta and at the same time will make practical use of their educational backgrounds, Applications from students will be matched with internship positions which will best utilize the student's education and interest. The Atlanta Urban Corps thus provides the students with a challenging job matching his interests and skills and provides the various agencies in Atlanta with a high-quality manpower resource, Over 250 interns will work in 15 City Departments and 20 non-City agencies on a variety of projects, Some examples of possible internships and the agency involved are; ( ATLANTA URBAN CORPS 30 Courtland Street, S. E., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303 Phone - 524-8091 po IP 1. City Planning Department proposes using 8-10 interns to update information in the city data bank, as well as participate in planning for the City of Atlanta. 2. Fulton County may use an intern task force to study zoning on the West Side. 3. The City Department of Parks and Recreation could use up to 40 students in neighborhood recreation programs, park facilities surveys and related programs. 4. Model Cities needs students to work in planning and implementing the Model Cities program, It is evident that students working in Atlanta Urban Corps Internships this year wiitl find their jobs both challenging and educational, PLACEMENT The Atlanta Urban Corps offers a service-learning experience that acts as an extension of the student's college education by exposing him to "real-life" problems. Students applying to the Atlanta Urban Corps will have the opportunity to indicate their own personal area of interest and will be placed in the program accordingly. The skills and experience of the Student will be significantly and usefully tapped by the employing A U C ATLANTA URBAN CORPS 30 Courtland Street, S. E., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303 Phone - 524-8091 é. $< agency and the student in turn will have the opportunity to improve, expand, and promote his areas of expressed interest and competence. FINANCING: Financial support for the Atlanta Urban Corps this summer will come basically from four sources: 1. The College Work Study Program of the Office of Education, 2, The agencies in which interns will be placed, inchding the City of Atlanta, Fulton County, etc. 3. The Atlanta Business Community. 4, Other sources, such as VISTA and the Southern Regional Education Board, From these sources, we hope to finance approximately 250 interns for the summer, 1969, The financing for an internship is on an 80-20% basis with 20% being paid by the agency receiving the intern and 80% from other sources, including funds from business. The breakdown of Internship financing available for this summer is as follows: A U C ATLANTA URBAN CORPS 30 Courtland Street, S. E., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303 Phone - 524-8091 80% Financin Southern Regional Education Board 20 Interns College Work Study Grants 150 Interns VISTA (Full Cost) 25 Interns 195 20% Finanein City of Atlanta 150 Interns Non-City Agencies 100 Interns 250 The Atlanta Urban Corps is seeking the support of the business community for the remaining 50 interns at a cost of $1,000 per intern. The program in Atlanta is unique in that the business community is offered direct involvement in a program of Urban improvement. The funds received from business will not only increase the total number of interns but will enable the Atlanta Urban Corps to employ students who are not classified "financially needy" by their school, and thus are eligible for College Work Study Funding. It will, in fact, enable the Atlanta Urban Corps to draw from the best students available, regardless of financial need, A U ( ATLANTA URBAN CORPS 30 Courtland Street, S.

We should be delighted to participate in the Urban Coprs except that we have already placed all of the students in this year's intern program. In all, this amounts to 32 students who will be at work in local and state governmental agencies throughout the nation this coming summer. We have great hopes for the success of this program, and for its expansion next summer. If I may, then, I shall put your materials into the file for next year's program, and be getting directly in touch with you sometime early in the fall. In fact, the South is that geographical area that is most under-represented in our placements for this coming summer, and we should therefore be most anxious to place an outstanding student with you next summer. Again, then, many thanks for thinking of us. With best wishes and regards, I am, Sincerely, are JERE John P. Reardon (signed in his absence) copy to The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. Mayor Mr. Sam A.

��The Atlanta Urban Corp is a cooperative program for bringing
bright, motivated young people into an intimate involvement
with Atlanta's municipal government and inter-city problems.
The primary emphasis is aimed at interim employment of college
students in Metropolitan government positions and in non-profit
agencies.
Available jobs range from administrative posts in city government
to social involvement in inter-city communities. The pro gram
offers a service-learning experience that acts as an extension
of the student's college education by exposing him to " real life"
problems by offering him a chance to temper idealism with actuality.
Internships provide not only a source of funds for the student,
it is also an educationally relevant experience that simultaneously
serves the city and its people.
'-
The Urban Corps is administered by participating agencies and
Atlanta's college students. It is funded mainly by the Federal
Work-Study Program through participating colleges. Students
that are financially eligible are funded 80% by fueir colleges and
20% by the employing agency. Atlanta businessmen and foundations
contribute funds for administration and interns not eligible for
work-study fundin g . The program is staffed almost entirely by
students~
Employing agencies include: the City of Atlanta, Fulton County
Government, DeKalb County Goyernment, Southern Regional Education
Board, VISTA, Soutnwest YMCA, Grady Hospital, Atlanta L:ilrary,
·
Boys Club, and others.
Stud ents eli gibl e for the Urban Corps include entering fr e s hmen
through graduate students. Interested students should contact
their Student Gov ernmen t Office o r apply dir ectly to Atlan ta
Urban Co r ps, 30 Cour tland St r ee t N.E. , Atl an ta, Georgia 30303 .
Tel e pho n e : (404) 525 - 2662.
Mayo r I van Allen say s o f the Ur ban Co rps:
" Our yg.,ung people and our ci ti e s can no l onger
affo r ~ to b e s t r a ngers. The Ur ban Co rps o ffers
students a chance t o be in the mainstream of
Atlanta's problems and po tenti al s."

Webb, of the Law Firm Nall, Hiller, Cadenhead & Dennis, has been taking care of the various legal aspects of turning the Atlanta Ur ban Corps into a reality. A brief outline of the legal status of the Atlanta Urban Corps, Inc. is as follows: 1. Applied to Secretary of State for Name Certificate. 2. Received Name Certificate from Secretary of State on February 19, 1969, verifying that there is no other corporation with identical or similar name on record. 3. Drafted Application for Charter. 4. Received Publisher's Affidavit on March 5, 1969, verifying publication of Charter Application once a week for four weeks. 5. Judge McKenzie of Fulton Superior Cour t signed Order granting Charter on April 5, 1969. 6. Received Charter signed and sealed by Secretary of State incorporating Atlanta Urban Corps. 7. Drafted By- Laws. 8. Filed Exemption Application with Internal Revenue Service applying for 501 (c) (3) exempt status (charitable). It will be a t least a month before wor d is received f r om IRS. The fore goi ng documents are on f ile in the Minute Book of the Corporati on . �ATLANTA URBAN CORPS INTERNSHIP DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY 1. Dual Goals of Internship A. Service Thr ough Agency to Community. B. Learning E:tperience (for Student, University, and Agency). 11. Needs of the Agency A. Relevancy of Internship to the Agency's Mission--the intern must be involved in a project through which he can express his creativi.ty and serve as a productiu.e source of agency output, not as a monitoring recipient of agency information (a non-contributing educational role). 111 . Needs of the Intern A. To _Know Exactly wbat His Assignment Is--provide him with a list of objectives and primary responsibilities; also develop a schedule, but one that the student and agency can change together and personalize as he grows into the internship ie. outline a planned approach, the mechanics of the assignment, but leave plent y of room for the intern to express his creativity and for modifications. B. Clearly Specify His Agency Personnel Resources--this should be someone the student knows he can go to with his pr oblems not vice- versa; a student advisor should aid the student in r eflecting on his internship exper i ence and the r eby assist him in relating it to his education. l V. Interaction Dynamics- - The Subtle Appr oach A.

EARL LANDERS, Administrative Assist ant MRS. ANN M. MOSES, Executive Secret ary DAN E. SWEAT, JR., Director of Governm ental Liaison June 3, 1969 The Atlanta Urban C:Jrps is the best example I've seen for young, intelligent minds to grapple with the problems of our city. Our young people and our cities can no longer afford to be strangers. The leadership 0 £ universities and cities must take advantage of this vast untapped source of energy and manpower. Atlanta should be proud of its students and universities. A group of students proposed this Urban Corps se1·vice-learning concept to our city and now their universities are helping to sponsor it. Interns will perform needed services for not only city government but private agencies as well and during the process they will learn a great deal about our city and its problems. I hope the Urban Corps i s only a beginning. We need this focused, aggressive concern of young people . We need more movement between the two worlds of academia and city. You interns have my wholehearted support. We need your help.

Fi nanc ial need, Atlant a resideut �Due to the la;.·ce num'be:r of financial sponsors of the UPJ3AN CORFS :, a uniform description of each financial a.1.·rangement is impossible . The main financial source for intern salaries is CWSP funding . However :, some agencies and depar tments have made special agreements to p;.·ovide more than the 200/o matching fund requi:red for matching CWSP. Certain agencies are funding the full cost of thefr inte:rns and have forwarded this money to the URBAN CORPS in advance of the work period. Ii. few a gencies have financial sponsors 11 that paJr the full cost of their interilS directly to the URBAN CORPS . VISTA is presently sponso:ring the full cost of 25 interns for select agencies. These students ai·e c ounted n.s VISTA 11 /i.ssociatesn as well as interns in the UPJ3J\l\T CORFS, /i.11 students not certified by their college for CWSP funding are given equal consideration for placement under the above non ~,CWSP funded positions . The URBJ'J\T CORPS also solicits funds from businesses and foundations. These funds :, unless earmarked for ce:rtain interns or ngencies ,. are used to place non--CWSP interns in a gencies that cannot financially afford to pay full cost. These intern slots are chosen on the relevancy of the intern-ship , the need of the a gency and the educational experience the intern might receive. These solicited funds are also used to fund UP.BAN CORFS staff intern positions. The basis financial source of each internship is one of the following : 1. College Work- Study-BO%, 2. Agency 100% 3. URB.l\N CORPS - 800/4~ l\.gency 20% 4. URB/i...1\f CORP.3 100% ( s taff positions) 5.

When a. potentia.l o.ssignnent dif ficulty is i dentified by the student ~ his supervisor, o:..· a. rnenber of t he UR:CA_N CORR3 Field Eva.lua.tion Unit, a Field Evaluator will r.:..eet with tbe studeat and his nupervisor t o discuss the problem.

If it is deterrained that a transfer i s not .:xro.ngcd , the student will be so notified. He nay, if he still desires transfer, o..ppeo.l this dccislon to the URB.f'JJ CORPS Personnel Cornittee . III. III~l. SUPERVISION ·- EVALUATION Supervision Assignments for URB.f\N CORP.3 interns a.Te approved on l y u_von the assuranc e thnt a dequate super Yisio11 will be pr ovided during the period of the inten1 ~ s hip . The avo..ilability of such supervision is reviewed a.nd evaluated by the URBAN CORPS Placement nnd Eva.luation Connnittecs . The level of supervis i on depends upon t he nature of the o.ssiQ;nment nnd the experience of the int ern. This is designed to offeT students the opportun t iy for max imum initiat i ve and c reative flexibi l ity consistent with the cn];>nbil Hies of t he individual and the requirements of the assic;rnnent. Especially in t he case of gr oup pTojectn ~ experienced gr aduate students may supplement the supervisory per sonm~l provided by the agency or department. This hns b een found to r:-f'fer the advantages of close s upervi s ion while per ::iitting more extensive project groups to e ffez···~ lvel y operate.

Suspension and Discipline URJ',.BN CORPS inte:;.·11s who fo.il to properly perform their assignment may be suspended by thei:;.~ immediate superviso:r . Such sus_pension will be immediately reported to the URBL\N CORPS and thoroughly reviewed. Where such action is wo.rranted a student may be transferred t o m1othe:;.~ a.ssie;nment or , in the co.se of serious misconduct, dis mi.ssed .frou1 the program. Any disciplinary action will be irmnedintel~r reported to the student's college financial aid office. Disciplinary a ct i on may only be taken upon the approva.l of the URBAN CORPS Personnel Cormnittee. The student , his supervisor , and the n,gency coordinator may be asked to appear before the committee before action is taken . 1\ repre-· sentative of the college may sit in on any meetings of the committee concerniDg its students . III- 3. Evaluation The evaluation of the performance of URBAN CORPS interns is carried out at several levels . These include the i mmediate supervi sor :, the coordinator of the agency or department to whic.h the student is assigr~ed , a f ield evaluation unit and the intern hi1nself. Both the student and his sup2rvisor OXIJ queried during the course of the int ernship as to their opinions of the internshi:9 experience and ._performa.nce. The coordinator of the agency or depa.rtment t o which the student is assigned is lilcewi se charc;dd with the t ask of i:.mi ntainin[j on going e valuation of the _performance of interns within his jurisdiction. These evaluations are available to the student's inati tut ion > t1hich a l so ma.y have direct o.ccess to the conce rned parcies. 1\n an integral part of the p:;.~ogrOi.1 the URBAN CORffi has a professional Field Evb.luation St a.ff traii1,ad in personnel worl.: . The Field Evalua.tion Sta.ff has several purposes. They will routine l y visit each inte:rn o.nc. supe:rvisor on the job site, evaluate the performance of the student and the quality of the assignment ~ a.nd p:covide direct assj_stance to student s and supervisors in the resolution of difficulties. (See Section II~7 ~ Change of Aasi~nment ) Written field reports a.:re compiled and a:;.~e available to the institution f or inspection. 10 - �Each intern will have a specific contact person on the Evalun.tion Staff throughout the internship . III-4 Education Aspects nwhen the idea. of service is put into n.ction it chn.nges the no.ture of education. Eclucn.tion becones an inter;:::-al part of living , not just a preparation for life.

Thus the need for involveuent , f or carinb. (Fay Boyer, 11 Ra.zing the Grad School Ghetto 11 ) In order t o insure ec1ucation releva.ncy f or ea.ch internshi].) the Field Evaluation Staff will conduct infernal sen inars utilizing university concousultants and representatives of various agencies . These seninars r.1ay inal:ut:'.w all interns on occasion but r2ost gr oup neetings will be structerec1 f0'r snaller intern groups within a specific category such as housing or recreation. These neetings will provide the intern with an overall view of his discipline whether working in a city clepartnent , county governnent or private Cl.Geney. Professors for Atlanta area. colleges will serve as educational consultants f or these students and will be available t o visit interns and supervisors on j ob l ocutions t o provide pr ofes s i onal advice on project i uplenentn.tion and final intern reports. III-5. Final Report The cul.n i nati on of the internship will be the final report. It i s a report written f or the intern·' s departncmt or agency ancl prepared uncler the guidance of t he intern ' s supervisor and URBAN CORPS Field Evaluation Staff. It is required under the -terns of appointnent by the URBAN CORPS . The final report is not a din.ry .. it is not an English thene . It is written for the a.c;ency to provide a docunented re1)ort on the problens ~ s cope , and results of the i nternship m1d the overall acency . Specific 11 cool -book n direction ca..rmot be f ollowecl on t hese reports , but general guidelines are incl udecJ. below to hel p insure sane uniforr:.i. skeleton f or a.11 reports. Ea.ch intern should discuss his report objectives and probleus with t he Field Evalun:tion Staf'f cont act early in the internship. A. General SugGest i ons f or the Inter~1 The writing of your final r eport wil naturally have t o wait until the conpletion of the field work (whette applicable ) , but it should be planned fron tb.l? very beginni113 of your proj ect • The content and structure of a good report are related directl y t ::; the nature and scope of the study and t o the the r.1ethods used in gathering, recordinc and interpreting uata. The scope , i.e. , geographical area a.nd objectives of the project should be clearly defined. ·-11~ �The methods used i n pUl"suing the _project should be recorded . Most of your tine will be spent go.therinc; do.to. froo books , o.rticles ; docur:JBnts, reports . and from mo.ny individuo.ls. You rao.y use one or o.11 of these o.pproo.ches , but the personal interview will probo.bly constitute o. chief source of informo.tion. Who.tever the source, it should be relevant to the objectives of your study o.nd documented _ i . e ., the source or person should be accurately recorded. Titles of persoas intJ1·viewed a.re important and shoulcl be noted. A field notebook is essential. Don ' t rely on mei:10ry~ write it dmm on the S}?Ot. A procedure found helpful by 1:mny investigo.tor s is transferrin~ the notebook to cards , which nre filed by topic. You should subnit internittent l?Togress reports to your Field Evaluation contact during your internship. These r eports and careful attention to notes will greatly sir.1plif'y the coElpilo.tion of the final report. As the p1·oject progresses, the f ormat and nubstance of the final re_i_)ort should be considered in your do.ta collection and the forn you use is your i ntermittent reportn. If you use this app roach; :y·ou ,-, i ll find that the pre_po.:ro.tion of your fino.l report ho.s been made ouch quicker o.nd ea,sie,.·.

Willia~, Many thanks for your letter of April 22 and the materials on the Atlanta Urban Corps. We should be delighted to participate in the Urban Coprs except that we have already placed all of the students in this year's intern prog ram. In all, this amounts to 32 students who will be at work in local and state governmental agencies throughout the nation this coming summer. We have great hopes for the success of this program, and for its expansion nex t summer. If I may, then, I shall put your materials into the file for next year's program, and be getting directly in touch with you sometime early in the fall. In fact, the South is that geographical area that is most under-repres ente~ in our placements for this coming summer, and we should therefore b e most a nxious to place an outst anding student with you next summer. Again, then, many thanks for thinking of us. regards, I am, With best wishes and Sincerely, John P. Reardon (signed in his a bs ence) copy to The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr . Mayor Mr. Sam -A.

Operational A:pects S.m Williams Legal Status of the U:-ban Corps Dennis webb ATLANTA URBAN CORPS CONCEPT The Atlanta Ucban Cocps is a unique program in America. Its goal is to provide the broad spectrum of college students with an opportunity to become in- volved in urban areas, applying theiz academic knowledge, their youth, and their enthusiasum. the program is a co-operative effort of the City of ‘tlanta, The Atlanta area colleges, Federal Covernment, private enterprise, metropolitan agencies, and the Atlanta area college students. This cooperation, the belief that the collese student should play a signif- icant cole in the policy making, and the involvement of private enterprise, makes the Atlanta Ucban Corps a potential ‘‘model" program for the nation. Tue Atlanta Urban Corps does not try to expause = philosophy but rather it “opens doors". It provides the opportunity to live with the problems that plague American cities today. It is demanding on the individual's high flying ideas sand demands a harsh look into the microscope of American social institutions. © It is unlikely that the 4tlanta Urban Cuxps will produce “instant solutions’. But it is on its way to involving youth in constructive, educational channels. Our soal is to help people resinape their thinkiny abcut youth and the city, and to cae. LEGAL ASPECTS Dennis J. Webb, of the Law Firm Nall, Miller, Cadenhead & Dennis, has been taking care of the various legal aspects of turning the Atlanta Urban Corps into a reality.

Judge McKenzie of Fulton Superior Court signed Order granting Charter on April 5, 1969. Received Charter signed and sealed by Secretary of State incorporating Atlanta Urban Corps. Drafted By-Laws. Filed Exemption Application with Internal Revenue Service applying for 501 (c) (3) exempt status (charitable). It will be at least a month before word is received from IRS.

Relevancy of Internship to the Agency's Mission--the intern must be involved in a project through which he can express his creativity and serve as a productive source of agency output, not as a monitoring recipient of agency information (a non-contributing educational role). Needs of the Intern A. To Know Exactly What His Assignment Is--provide him with a list of objectives and primary responsibilities; also develop a schedule, but one that the student and agency can change together and personalize as he grows into the intern- ship ie. outline a planned approach, the mechanics of the assignment, but leave plenty of room for the intern to ex- press his creativity and for modifications. B- Clearly Specify His Agency Personnel Resources-~this should be someone the student knows he can go to with his problems not vice-versa; a student advisor should aid the student in reflecting on his internship experience and thereby assist him in relating it to his education. Interaction Dynamics--The Subtle Approach A. Help the Agency Define Challenging, Yet Realistic Intern- ships--let the agency describe its needs, then assist in meeting those needs with internships that meet the needs of the intern as well. 1.) Prevent Assignments That Require Too Little of the Intern--eg. an errand-boy role, or job position devoid of educational significance, too limited in scope. 2.) Prevent Assignments That Require Too Much--eg. an analysis problem whose propensity exceeds an intern's educational competence or time limit. Evaluation (This section is included with the philosophy of Internship Development because the development of a sound system of self- evaluation is an essential phase of our program.) A. Standard Evaluation Forms for Interns (Counselors and Agencies) B. Some Form of Final Written Report by the Intern 1.) Type of Report Dependent on Type of Internship a.) Research projects will require extensive reports. b.) Non-research projects will require less extensive reports, but the educational relevance of these internships may be entirely dependent on the effort the intern spends in producing it. C. The Value of Evaluation 1.) Value to Atlanta Urban Corps--these reports will serve as the major source of feedback from the interns and therefore, will be of central importance to an effective evaluation program. 2.) Value to the Student--forces interns to articulate his experience, and thereby analyze its educational significance. 3.) Value as a Stimulus to the Agency--the information and suggestions provided the agency can serve as a basis for agency evaluation and improvement. INTERNSHIP DEVELOPMENT Perhaps the most important immediate function of the Atlanta Urban Corps is to develop tiie internsiip positions for this summer's pro:ram. Navelopment procecures have been worked out and initial contacts have been made with asencies, both within city covernment cnd without, that may veceive #.U.C. interns. The development staff is currently being assigned asencies in which to Jevelop internship positions. Tie development procedure that is being followed begins with an initial contact ith the agency director, and in the case of the City tovernment, Department Dizectors. Tiis contact establishes an approximate number of interns that agency =ishes to employ and sets broad guides on the nature of the internship. At that point, a student is assizned to work with an agency director in developing :is internship in detail. At present, we have 15-20 students who will be working in this capacity. Finally, when the internship is developed to the satisfaction of the student and the agency director, that internsiip is classified and filed to be matched with student applications. i. have had exeat success in getting apsencies to respond to our call fox positions with truly celevant and chaiicuginug internships. In the City Jovernment alone, we have had initial espouse from fifteen departments xequesting approximately 150 interns. ‘ome examples of the types of initern- siip positions beins proposed include: Sanitation Pept. -- The use of up to tventy interns in such peojects as time and motion studies and water pollution control. Water Works = Using up te fifteen interns, some serving es plannere fo: water utilization and others in eveas of customer service and building proyrams. Luilding Inspector -Tiree students are needed to help compile and evaluate a housing conditions study for the City. ft is obvious that the potential in these and many other areas is indeed challangin, and stimulating to students, as well as being long-awaited projects the “ity could not implement because of the lack of qualified man- power. In addition to the City, over 150 interns have been requested to date from non-city agencies. It is actually 2 disservice to list only a few of the internships that are being offered students this summer, because the scope and range of pro- jects is tremendous. [ft is certain that students working in che Atlanta Urban Corps this summer will be serving their city in a relevant, chall- anging, and educational internship. ATLANTA URBAN CORPS STUDENT RECRULTMENT The student recruitment effort bezan in earnest at eaci of the nine Atlanta campuses this week. It has been decided to limit recruitment to these nine campuses this year because of time and efficiency considerations. ‘lowever, the U-ban Corps will accept applications from any colleve student resardless of his school. in the future active recruitment will take place at many schools in the Southeast. fpproximate recruitment quotas nave been considered for each campus and in some cases limited fund availability (CWSP) has forced us to limit recruitment and not 0 all out. /t Emory for example, our Coordinator assures us that with an all ovt campaign he could vecruit 600 students but yet with only 3 CwSP slots available at Emory we lave elected to only utilize limited publicity in an effort to limit the number of applications to a more reasonable level. Although it would be premature to make any predictions at this time, early response to the Urban Coxps among the stu:ents has been terrific and we feel we will have no difficulty in filling the available job slots. - Tags: Box 9, Box 9 Folder 9, Folder topic: Urban Corps | 1967

Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Dave: Thank you for your inquiry about the Urhkan Corps. I would like to suggest that the best approach might be for you to step across the street to the Municipal Auditorium and talk to Sam Williams or some of the other young people involved in setting the Urban Corps up. I am sure that they would appreciate you discussing it with them and giving them any ideas you might have. I would certainly be interested in discussing personnel procedures and practices of the City of Atlanta with you and will look for a call when you want to get together.

EARL LANDERS, Administrative Assist ant MRS. ANN M. MOSES, Executive Secret ary DAN E. SWEAT, JR., Director of Governm ental Liaison June 3, 1969 The Atlanta Urban C:Jrps is the best example I've seen for young, intelligent minds to grapple with the problems of our city. Our young people and our cities can no longer afford to be strangers. The leadership 0 £ universities and cities must take advantage of this vast untapped source of energy and manpower. Atlanta should be proud of its students and universities. A group of students proposed this Urban Corps se1·vice-learning concept to our city and now their universities are helping to sponsor it. Interns will perform needed services for not only city government but private agencies as well and during the process they will learn a great deal about our city and its problems. I hope the Urban Corps i s only a beginning. We need this focused, aggressive concern of young people . We need more movement between the two worlds of academia and city. You interns have my wholehearted support. We need your help.

Fi nanc ial need, Atlant a resideut �Due to the la;.·ce num'be:r of financial sponsors of the UPJ3AN CORFS :, a uniform description of each financial a.1.·rangement is impossible . The main financial source for intern salaries is CWSP funding . However :, some agencies and depar tments have made special agreements to p;.·ovide more than the 200/o matching fund requi:red for matching CWSP. Certain agencies are funding the full cost of thefr inte:rns and have forwarded this money to the URBAN CORPS in advance of the work period. Ii. few a gencies have financial sponsors 11 that paJr the full cost of their interilS directly to the URBAN CORPS . VISTA is presently sponso:ring the full cost of 25 interns for select agencies. These students ai·e c ounted n.s VISTA 11 /i.ssociatesn as well as interns in the UPJ3J\l\T CORFS, /i.11 students not certified by their college for CWSP funding are given equal consideration for placement under the above non ~,CWSP funded positions . The URBJ'J\T CORPS also solicits funds from businesses and foundations. These funds :, unless earmarked for ce:rtain interns or ngencies ,. are used to place non--CWSP interns in a gencies that cannot financially afford to pay full cost. These intern slots are chosen on the relevancy of the intern-ship , the need of the a gency and the educational experience the intern might receive. These solicited funds are also used to fund UP.BAN CORFS staff intern positions. The basis financial source of each internship is one of the following : 1. College Work- Study-BO%, 2. Agency 100% 3. URB.l\N CORPS - 800/4~ l\.gency 20% 4. URB/i...1\f CORP.3 100% ( s taff positions) 5.

When a. potentia.l o.ssignnent dif ficulty is i dentified by the student ~ his supervisor, o:..· a. rnenber of t he UR:CA_N CORR3 Field Eva.lua.tion Unit, a Field Evaluator will r.:..eet with tbe studeat and his nupervisor t o discuss the problem.

If it is deterrained that a transfer i s not .:xro.ngcd , the student will be so notified. He nay, if he still desires transfer, o..ppeo.l this dccislon to the URB.f'JJ CORPS Personnel Cornittee .

SUPERVISION ·- EVALUATION Supervision Assignments for URB.f\N CORP.3 interns a.Te approved on l y u_von the assuranc e thnt a dequate super Yisio11 will be pr ovided during the period of the inten1 ~ s hip . The avo..ilability of such supervision is reviewed a.nd evaluated by the URBAN CORPS Placement nnd Eva.luation Connnittecs . The level of supervis i on depends upon t he nature of the o.ssiQ;nment nnd the experience of the int ern. This is designed to offeT students the opportun t iy for max imum initiat i ve and c reative flexibi l ity consistent with the cn];>nbil Hies of t he individual and the requirements of the assic;rnnent. Especially in t he case of gr oup pTojectn ~ experienced gr aduate students may supplement the supervisory per sonm~l provided by the agency or department. This hns b een found to r:-f'fer the advantages of close s upervi s ion while per ::iitting more extensive project groups to e ffez···~ lvel y operate.

Suspension and Discipline URJ',.BN CORPS inte:;.·11s who fo.il to properly perform their assignment may be suspended by thei:;.~ immediate superviso:r . Such sus_pension will be immediately reported to the URBL\N CORPS and thoroughly reviewed. Where such action is wo.rranted a student may be transferred t o m1othe:;.~ a.ssie;nment or , in the co.se of serious misconduct, dis mi.ssed .frou1 the program. Any disciplinary action will be irmnedintel~r reported to the student's college financial aid office. Disciplinary a ct i on may only be taken upon the approva.l of the URBAN CORPS Personnel Cormnittee. The student , his supervisor , and the n,gency coordinator may be asked to appear before the committee before action is taken . 1\ repre-· sentative of the college may sit in on any meetings of the committee concerniDg its students . III- 3. Evaluation The evaluation of the performance of URBAN CORPS interns is carried out at several levels . These include the i mmediate supervi sor :, the coordinator of the agency or department to whic.h the student is assigr~ed , a f ield evaluation unit and the intern hi1nself. Both the student and his sup2rvisor OXIJ queried during the course of the int ernship as to their opinions of the internshi:9 experience and ._performa.nce. The coordinator of the agency or depa.rtment t o which the student is assigned is lilcewi se charc;dd with the t ask of i:.mi ntainin[j on going e valuation of the _performance of interns within his jurisdiction. These evaluations are available to the student's inati tut ion > t1hich a l so ma.y have direct o.ccess to the conce rned parcies. 1\n an integral part of the p:;.~ogrOi.1 the URBAN CORffi has a professional Field Evb.luation St a.ff traii1,ad in personnel worl.: . The Field Evalua.tion Sta.ff has several purposes. They will routine l y visit each inte:rn o.nc. supe:rvisor on the job site, evaluate the performance of the student and the quality of the assignment ~ a.nd p:covide direct assj_stance to student s and supervisors in the resolution of difficulties. (See Section II~7 ~ Change of Aasi~nment ) Written field reports a.:re compiled and a:;.~e available to the institution f or inspection. 10 - �Each intern will have a specific contact person on the Evalun.tion Staff throughout the internship . III-4 Education Aspects nwhen the idea. of service is put into n.ction it chn.nges the no.ture of education. Eclucn.tion becones an inter;:::-al part of living , not just a preparation for life.

Thus the need for involveuent , f or carinb. (Fay Boyer, 11 Ra.zing the Grad School Ghetto 11 ) In order t o insure ec1ucation releva.ncy f or ea.ch internshi].) the Field Evaluation Staff will conduct infernal sen inars utilizing university concousultants and representatives of various agencies . These seninars r.1ay inal:ut:'.w all interns on occasion but r2ost gr oup neetings will be structerec1 f0'r snaller intern groups within a specific category such as housing or recreation. These neetings will provide the intern with an overall view of his discipline whether working in a city clepartnent , county governnent or private Cl.Geney. Professors for Atlanta area. colleges will serve as educational consultants f or these students and will be available t o visit interns and supervisors on j ob l ocutions t o provide pr ofes s i onal advice on project i uplenentn.tion and final intern reports. III-5. Final Report The cul.n i nati on of the internship will be the final report. It i s a report written f or the intern·' s departncmt or agency ancl prepared uncler the guidance of t he intern ' s supervisor and URBAN CORPS Field Evaluation Staff. It is required under the -terns of appointnent by the URBAN CORPS . The final report is not a din.ry .. it is not an English thene . It is written for the a.c;ency to provide a docunented re1)ort on the problens ~ s cope , and results of the i nternship m1d the overall acency . Specific 11 cool -book n direction ca..rmot be f ollowecl on t hese reports , but general guidelines are incl udecJ. below to hel p insure sane uniforr:.i. skeleton f or a.11 reports. Ea.ch intern should discuss his report objectives and probleus with t he Field Evalun:tion Staf'f cont act early in the internship. A. General SugGest i ons f or the Inter~1 The writing of your final r eport wil naturally have t o wait until the conpletion of the field work (whette applicable ) , but it should be planned fron tb.l? very beginni113 of your proj ect • The content and structure of a good report are related directl y t ::; the nature and scope of the study and t o the the r.1ethods used in gathering, recordinc and interpreting uata. The scope , i.e. , geographical area a.nd objectives of the project should be clearly defined. ·-11~ �The methods used i n pUl"suing the _project should be recorded . Most of your tine will be spent go.therinc; do.to. froo books , o.rticles ; docur:JBnts, reports . and from mo.ny individuo.ls. You rao.y use one or o.11 of these o.pproo.ches , but the personal interview will probo.bly constitute o. chief source of informo.tion. Who.tever the source, it should be relevant to the objectives of your study o.nd documented _ i . e ., the source or person should be accurately recorded. Titles of persoas intJ1·viewed a.re important and shoulcl be noted. A field notebook is essential. Don ' t rely on mei:10ry~ write it dmm on the S}?Ot. A procedure found helpful by 1:mny investigo.tor s is transferrin~ the notebook to cards , which nre filed by topic. You should subnit internittent l?Togress reports to your Field Evaluation contact during your internship. These r eports and careful attention to notes will greatly sir.1plif'y the coElpilo.tion of the final report. As the p1·oject progresses, the f ormat and nubstance of the final re_i_)ort should be considered in your do.ta collection and the forn you use is your i ntermittent reportn. If you use this app roach; :y·ou ,-, i ll find that the pre_po.:ro.tion of your fino.l report ho.s been made ouch quicker o.nd ea,sie,.·.

The bulk of funds is used for on campus employment such as library assistants, bookstore and cafeteria student employees. Colleges may contract with agencies for their work study funds to be used by their students. CWSP funds may pay up to 80% of the students silary with the agency paying the remainder. The Atlanta Urban Corps has contacted all Atlanta area colleges and most within this region. Tentative agreements with ‘ financial aid officers total approximately 200 workestudy atudent slots at 30% funding. . 1968 national appropriation for CWSP was approximately §22 million, Atlanta area colleges received approximtely $580,000, nner eee 4 * ' j . | ar. le ee ee iC dill.

The impact that the Urban Corps will have on the city of Atianta will be made through its program of “selfesell." Therefore, a public relations director has been appointed, and t e job of presenting the Urban Corps to Atlanta and keeping the program in the public eye is underway. At present a newsletter is being drawn up which will come from the general office and be sent to those students and none students who are working closely with the program, e.g. Board of Trustees, College Relations Board. The newsletter will attempt to serve as an interedepartment information source for the Urban Corps. In connection with ‘the on-campus student recruitment devel-= opment, public relations is working on a student brochure which explains the Urban Corps in short paragraph form, These brochures will be printed and distributed among the nine participating - Atlanta campuses, p It is hoped that as the public relations area develops we will have the Atlanta Urban Corps on the tongues of television and radio announcers, in the colums of the Atlanta papers and perhaps on several billboards shreugnone the city. Contact work in this area is being made. ca pect cr ei cg een atte
