...resolve a dispute of this sort? Although the amended Civil Rights Act of 1964 orders employers to make "reasonable accommodations" to an employee's religious needs, it carefully avoids being specific about what would be reasonable.

There lies the true hypocrisy in Lupo's mind, for the educated and enlightened liberals of the belt suburbs disappeared when they were most needed. Without a plan including the suburbs--a blueprint for social change involving richer communities and their educational facilities--integration becomes a costly farce. The Supreme Court has made it difficult, if not impossible, to force integration across district lines, although voluntary plans, such as Massachusetts' METCO, can be employed legally...
