...union itself is subject to considerable Communist influence and I have been informed that there are plans afoot to bring a Communist-influenced group of students down from Cambridge to march in support of the strike.

With that added aid, students could plan course programs more easily for two years ahead. In any case, the Faculty's decision to bring its once-mysterious catalogue up to date is an encouraging sing of progress--a sign which is paralleled by its other wise decision to abolish compulsory hour exams, attendance, and mid-term grades. Things seem to be looking...
