This article focuses on the Seventh National Student Congress that was convened at Iowa State College, Ames, Iowa, from August 22 through August 31. Compared with past conventions, this one was surprisingly dull. It was clear that left-wing attempts to mold the association into an agitational group had been completely crushed. The U.S. National Security Agency has now come of age. Its programs deal with students' international relations, with national affairs as they bear on student aims, and with student government on the campus. It runs a non-profit travel bureau. Since last year it has been able, with the help of gifts from individuals and foundations, to operate wholly "in the black."
