...teachers in perpetuity"-although the constant scholarly need for new interpretations of new research makes that a debatable necessity. In practice, each university likes to think that it can teach as well as the next, and little such exchange is going on. Stanford's Mechanical Engineering Professor Peter Bulkeley doubts that many schools really want to "buy their physics from M.I.T. and their theology from Union Theological Seminary." Another hindrance to exchange is the proliferation of incompatible television systems-a tape produced at one school may not fit the equipment of another. Despite such obstacles, Berkeley is finding...

A rear admiral now and C.O. of the U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Bulkeley, 52, is not the sort to take any guff from Fidel Castro. Last week, when Castro accused the base of using suction pumps to draw off on the sly some 114,000 gallons of Cuban water daily, Bulkeley replied: "Hogwash." Guantanamo was using its own water - the mains from Cuban territory were shut tight. "Castro is calling me a liar...
