Professors. "An occupational hazard is arrogance. This grows out of the easy victories of the classroom, where he works with young people who know less than he does. He may thus unconsciously come to believe that business, politics, and educational administration would be much better managed if those in charge would only apply the same intelligence to their work that he uses...
...demand exceeds the space in the new Quad, more buildings will be built or existing space converted to meet the needs. It is conceivable that in the future--say in ten years--a majority of Princeton will be living in such Quad arrangements, though no-one is willing to hazard such a prediction...
...dissent punctuated one of the strangest chapters in modern U.S. diplomacy, a chapter that brought important modifications of longstanding U.S. nuclear policy with hardly a word of public debate.

This is converted by the reciprocating-engine principle into a pump action, giving pulsatile pressure in four Plexiglas chambers. In each of these is a rubber bladder corresponding to one of the heart's own chambers. The bladders are paired (like the auricles and ventricles) and they contract and expand in a rhythm like the heart's. In an additional chamber, corresponding to the lungs...

The difficulties of manned space flight are still enormous, and they seem to increase the longer they are studied. The recently discovered belt of Van Allen radiation that rings the earth is a serious hazard that was not dreamed of a few months...
