Whatever the program, most journalists who go back to the campus are happy they did. "When a man finishes our medical course," says Columbia's Advanced Programs Director John Foster Jr., "he may not be able to remove an appendix, but he certainly can talk intelligently with the surgeon who did." Atlanta Constitution Editorial Writer Bruce Galphin, an ex-Nieman, offers more general praise of his fellowship: "Just by the example of the greatness at Harvard, you're ashamed not to do better things and try harder." Another Nieman Fellow, San Juan Star Columnist Alex Maldonado, says that...
...Diem legacy which has turned Vietnam into a sort of ruptured appendix hanging from the belly of Asia. If the U.S. doesn't want to install another Diem in Saigon, it will have to let the Vietnamese people choose their own government.

When Kimberly Ann Bruneel, 8, was wheeled into Operating Room No. 1 to have her appendix removed, Nurse-Anesthetist Joan Booth simply jabbed the needle of a syringe through the rubber seal on the "Surital" bottle, drew off some of the fluid, and put a, little into the patient's arm through an intravenous drip tube. The child immediately went into bronchial spasms. Nurse Booth says...
...evidence, they cannot be ignored," he explains in Dark Ghetto, continuing, "Where anger is the appropriate response, to avoid the feeling itself . . . is to set boundaries on the truth itself." Clark has, since 1954, a powerful, if implicit, supporter for his argument--the Supreme Court, which accepted his psychological appendix to the brief, in Brown v. Board of Education...
