...present concentration-distribution structure. Consciously or not, such failure to support a mandatory universal program represents a real challenge to the central thesis of General Education. This is simply that in the thought and action of great men lies that "Western Tradition" which should reach every student in explicit fashion. By permitting the scrupulously tended GE courses to become another option of the undergraduate shopping for intellectual condiment, the underlying crucial purpose will slip away from sight. Similarly, the poll results show that an overwhelming number of men now in the courses feel increased enrollment in the section meetings will...

...Council has acted fairly and with adequate notice to the men concerned. While the removal does not constitute any personal reflection on the men who were ejected (except an explicit lack of enthusiasm for Council activities), it poses a challenge to the newly inaugurated practice of electing rather than appointing the bulk of Council membership. Undergraduates have demonstrated that they want the Council to have closer ties with the student body than it has had in the past.

But this results ... in leaving the physical to go its own way unchecked by the spirit, so that the vaunted spiritual exaltation has its counterpart in bodily immorality. In either case the unity of man's life is broken; the material world, with all man's economic activity, becomes...

...more orderly than that of white troops. Later he was assigned to a motor gunboat in Burma, where he was impressed with the intelligence and charm of the Burmese people. By the time he sat down to write The Chequer Board, his sympathy for colored peoples had become an explicit insistence on social equality. Says his white hero, slowly dying of his war wounds: "I had been thinking about these darker-skinned people that I got to know about. . . .
