Plans are being made for the establishment of a national computer network to be used for direct communication between the students and professors. The Sakharov Institute plans to grant 1.000 scholarships each year to students interested in taking advanced courses from the NSMCS and at least 20 annual scholarships for university study. The Sakharov Institutes Soviet Study Research Center will draw on the resources of the 300.000 recent emigrants and defectors from the Soviet Union. The center will be unique in that many of the researchers will have had recent firsthand experiences in the Soviet Union and continuing contact with friends and relatives still in the U.S.S.R. Andrei Sakharov is a symbol for all those who love freedom and respect the power of ideas.
