Abstract: This paper is based upon discussion which took place during a Symposium on Education for Operations Research which was held in Ithaca in October, 1954. The participants were Dr. Russell L. Ackoff, Case Institute of Technology; Prof. J. G. Brainerd, University of Pennsylvania; Dr. Glen D. Camp, Melpar, Inc.; Dr. W. P Cunningham, U.S. Naval Post Graduate School, Dr. Harold O. Davidson, The Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Merrill M. Flood, Columbia University, Dr. Ellis A. Johnson, The Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Joseph F. McCloskey, The Johns Hopkins University, Dr. R. E. McGarrah, Cornell University; Dr. Loring G. Mitten, The Ohio State University, Prof. J. E. Morton, Cornell University, Mr. Russell R. O'Neill, University of California, Dr. Edward S. Quade, The Rand Corporation, Dean Robert H. Roy, The Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Melvin Salveson, General Electric Company, Dr. Andrew Schultz, Jr., Cornell University; and Prof. T. M. Whitin, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.The transcript of many portions of the discussion is too sketchy to permit direct quotation or publication, and this paper represents a sincere effort to present the opinion of the group where agreement was reached, or the points of disagreement, where the latter seems appropriate. It should be emphasized that the thoughts expressed are based upon the tape and stenographic transcripts available, and cannot be taken to report the full opinion of any individual participant. Operations Research , ISSN 0030-364X, was published as Journal of the Operations Research Society of America from 1952 to 1955 under ISSN 0096-3984.
