ASSERTING that there is a "genuine ferment on the campus" and hoping that this ferment will lead to a union of college youth marching on the "path to an ordered, cooperative, profitless society," James Weschler has, with his admirably written study of the "Revolt on The Campus" made an important contribution to our understanding of the present maelstrom of confused tendencies of political thought and action as they whirl about the ivyed walls. Documented with care and thoroughness, organized with skill and clarity the work is also very readable. Mr. Weschler has a clear swift moving style which makes...
