F ederal reserve Ba n k DALLAS, TEXAS of Dallas 75222 Circular No. 7 U-U9 February 21, 197^- To the Chief Executive Officer of the Member Bank Addressed in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: The Federal Reserve System’s role in today’s complex economy demands that it not only formulate and execute monetary and regulatory policies, but also accept the responsibility of providing the informa tion programs necessary to insure total understanding of these policies and their impact. This responsibility has prompted the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas to consider developing a Graduate School of Central Banking. As presently conceived, the school would provide a curriculum ranging from the impact of regulatory and monetary policy decisions to current banking and economic topics of broad interest. The level of the curriculum will probably best serve the needs of senior officers and directors of commercial banks. The school is tentatively scheduled to last one week. A minimal fee would be assessed to cover this Bank’s direct operational costs incurred in conducting the school, and each participant would be expected to pay all personal travel and living costs. Please review the enclosed list of proposed topics of instruc tion and give us your suggestions or comments on the return postal card, which is also enclosed. We also solicit your help in determining the interest in such a school and the most convenient time of the year to conduct it. All comments and suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you.
