CONCLUSION 



The Sea Grant Program is new, and it is not possible or desirable to attempt too rigid defini- 

 tion of either College or Pi-oject support requirements. The Foundation expects to maintain flexibility 

 in its approach to proposals and urges that interested institutions use both imagination and boldness 

 in developing proposals. The purposes of the Act would not be fulfilled by a series of activities that 

 serve only to continue and expand the things now being done to exploit the oceans. 



A pamphlet containing suggestions for preparation of Sea Grant College and Sea Grant Project 

 proposals will be available in a short time and will be sent on request. 



The Foundation's Sea Grant Program staff is available for consultation. Institutions may ad- 

 dress inquiries to:
