...sufficient if it removes a little ignorance"--and, in the days of Nicholas Murray Butler, it did just that. America did not bother its universities, and vice versa. After the Depression and World War II, when a college education became the property of the middle class, so paltry a goal as the removal of "a little ignorance" would no longer do. Colleges had to justify themselves with "newer" ideas and "newer" research. Since the professors had all the answers, let them fix up society.

...jumped to an early lead in the first period, when senior John Kubacki slipped in a rebound past sophomore goalie Bruce Durno. Harvard retaliated ten minutes later when DeMichele slapped in a hard shot from the point.

Israel's argument is convincing, except for its presumption of rationality on all sides...
...Nixon Administration has yet to take a stand on the issue. Whatever its decision, it is evident that much of U.S. industry needs some sort of spur-economic, moral or legislative-to overcome its lethargy toward the physical dangers Americans face in the course of earning a living. The goal of improving individual safety is beyond dispute. Every month that the acrimonious debate drags on over how best to reach it, another 1,100 U.S. workers will...
