...committee to reform the CRR noted some of the most objectionable of the CRR's problems: its power to deny students who come before it the right to legal counsel, its power to admit hearsay evidence against a defendant, its Faculty domination, the broad discretion allowed the University in defining a punishable offense, and the lack of a separate board of appeal.

...good natured eruption of guffaws followed. But most of the people who gather once a month in the cold University Hall chambers, would have to admit that Salada's message is only half true.

European and Japanese efforts to catch and surpass the U.S. will probably increase. Said M.I.T...

In a recent freshman class at Harvard, 77% came from the top tenth of their high school graduating class and an additional 11% came from the second tenth. It is, of course, statistically absurd to think that these students will make grades that...
