...formal grades will be issued under the present system, except to Seniors and Juniors participating in Social Relations 99, Tutorial for Credit. All other Honors candidates will receive either "honors," "pass," or "fail," accompanied by a report from their tutor...
That was too much for Reservation Manager John Macomber. On April 30 he "verbally" fired Joan-not knowing that she had completed her 90-day probation period just the day before, and thus could not be given the air without formal charges. Joan's union (the Air Transport Division of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks) raised such a howl that Pan Am reinstated her.

For the first time in many years, the student playwright was accorded formal recognition, encouragement, and an outlet through which he could obtain, as Archibald MacLeish has said, the necessary experience of feeling "the blush of shame" that comes when he sees his own work produced. The Workshop has continued right up to the present and has fulfilled its mission admirably...
