To many faculty members, at least, the year 2000 is just another year, and this winter break is just like so many other winter breaks: a time to relax, get cozy with the family, perhaps even take a trip.
"We don't notice what year it is," says Harvard President Neil L. Rudenstine, when asked whether he and his family have special plans for the eve of the millennium.
And those faculty members who do notice what year it is say they are no less inclined to shake up their vacation schedules simply because of the date.
Cogan University Professor of Philosophy Hilary W. Putnam takes a rational view of the new millennium. He says his plans for winter break are as yet unaffected by Y2K, and he plans to take a Jan. 1 flight to Tel-Aviv, Israel, a booking he made assuming New Year's...
Many faculty members share Putnam's mindset, saying they believe--and hope--that the hype over the advent of the year 2000 has been exaggerated.
