...wants to be an electrical engineer. The state university fits his pocketbook, but his dream is M.I.T. He should try M.I.T. (though his only-average college board score in English is a hazard), and he should also try Wisconsin's Ripon College (enrollment: 600). He may feel happier at Ripon because it is smaller and less expensive. And it is one of the 17 colleges currently in M.I.T.'s "two-degree plan."

Met by a crowd of newsmen and clerics at a Chicago airport last week, as he returned from Washington, Meyer chomped his chewing gum vigorously. "Of course, I am happy for myself," he said, "but I am even happier for the people of Chicago. We must be even more dedicated now."

("Professor Levin read us all of Love's Labour's Lost today.") A Yalie, who had somehow heard of Gene's plan sent him a Care package with a letter of encouragement.
