...money and new sources of it are vital needs in the improvement of Vietnamese higher education. New construction programs should be based on a concept of centralization which permits and enhances the use of scarce personnel as well as materials.

Some scientists have theorized that the hidden side bore many more craters and pockmarks than the visible face.

Because all tenants of a public housing project have low incomes, the project has basically the same atmosphere as an urban ghetto; almost...
...educational concept of a confidential relationship between the student and his college or university is supported here by the legal principles of freedom of association and the right of privacy. Like other citizens, students are entitled to engage in lawful assembly; if they are to learn true respect for the Constitution, they must learn from their own experience that that entitlement is never abridged without serious reflection, due cause, and profound reluctance. similarly, at a time when every individual's privacy is subject to serious erosion, each new invasion should be strongly resisted. Except in the most extreme instances...
