Activities from about 1955 to 1965 included writing an up-to-date career brochure, the administration of the Program of Visiting Professors of Astronomy (now the Shapley Visiting Lectureships Program), the institution of educational films promoting astronomy as a career, the organization of a Conference on Graduate Education in Astronomy and a discussion questioning the need for accreditation of degree-granting departments of astronomy. The committee meetings also afforded the opportunity for informal discussions for the improvement of teaching, from kindergarten through graduate school.
