...will down a couple of dry martinis. Dinner is either with the family or a black-tie affair for eight or ten guests. Afterward, Nixon retires to the Lincoln sitting room and tackles the blue folders that Haldeman has tucked into the President's old tan attache case, often working until...
Many responsible scientists and strategists make a cogent case for Sentinel's deployment.

The two courses present a radical point of view on social change in America--they are virtually the only courses in the Catalogue to offer this point of view. Since Brown and the other opponents of this course have failed consistently to offer a sufficient explanation for booting the course out of their department, since they have continually harassed the course leaders with arguments that have been resolved as long ago as the CEP meeting of October 9 (when Dean Ford called 148 a "valuable experiment...
