...Committee on Education Policy started processing the five-month-old Dunlop Report on Recruitment and Retention of Faculty. The CEP approved an important section of the report dealing with re-arrangement of Faculty titles. Under the approved plan, Harvard would abolish the rank of "instructor" and hire all new Ph.D's as "assistant professors. While nothing that the Faculty's budget problems might force it to hire fewer men, the CEP also recommended higher salaries for Faculty members...

"In Egypt today," he complained at the time, "a water buffalo is more valuable than a human being. I mean, it costs more to hire a water buffalo for a day's work than it does to hire a fellah." Today the same holds true, though the price has gone up for both a man's labor (58¢ a day) and a water buffalo's hire (69¢). Under Nasser's socialism, the fellah no longer...
