Bulkeley, a 28-year-old writer who recently moved to Boston after six years with the Journal, knew someone who had taken Raiffa's course, and thought it might make a good subject for an article...

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...
