...read your story with interest and a touch of envy. With an enrollment of only about 5,000, instead of 50,000, and lacking the stimulating influence of an off-campus all-purpose rebel fringe community of another 10,000, Vanderbilt cannot match the flesh-colored originality of Berkeley's sensual free-for-alls...
Identification Value. Staircase's success is a sweet surprise to Miss Kaufman, a vivacious divorcee and mother of two (her son is a Berkeley graduate student, her daughter a University of Wisconsin senior), who quit the New York City school system after 17 intermittent years as a high school English teacher to write her book.

"I reject the notion that anything goes on this campus," said Berkeley Chancellor Roger Heyns. "I seriously doubt...
...most other campus protests, the great majority of students seems either uninterested in or scornful of the sexual-freedom movement. Stanford Junior Suzanne Lefranc condemns the Forum for "turning sex into a personal joke-selling lapel buttons with snickering slogans." And Berkeley's Jerry Goldstein, president of the campus student government, calls it all "so absurd that I don't think students are paying attention to it." As for any legal action against licentiousness at house parties, Berkeley Police Chief Addison Fording contends that he cannot arrest anyone unless someone present files a complaint...
