Time was when a young clergyman could expect his first pulpit to be a rural clapboard church whose faithful accorded him and his preaching unquestioning respect. Today, he is more apt to find himself confronted with spiritual drift in suburbia or explosive hatred in an urban ghetto-and every-where by growing skepticism about the value of religion. Last week the American Association of Theological Schools published a study that bluntly accused most Protestant seminaries of being ill-equipped to train clergymen for ministering to today's world...
While table varieties accounted for only 20% of U.S. wine sales 30 years ago, they are now up to 40%, and industry sources expect that they will reach 75% before long.

More important, the students become involved in the dialogue over their own education which has been going on since the Hutchins...
...mount another single central effort for capital funds and give it more prominence and attention than a number of others. Instead a new policy of fund-raising was adopted. Under this a number of efforts of equal standing (in terms of the attention and assistance they may expect to receive from the central administration) have now been authorized. The success of all of them is important for the University's health. Though the asking of no one of them considered in itself is frighteningly formidable, together they add up to a new, for us, stupendous goal of more than...
