Some Houses lack resident tutors even in English and Social Relations. Only one House has a resident in Philosophy, although an instructor in this field would be an ideal primer for student discussions, whether in the dining room, the common room, or the tutor's own suite. By selecting tutors to live in the House from a large number of fields, Masters would enable nearly every student to find a Faculty member in his own field of interest...

Furthermore, at Procter & Gamble and other companies, wage guarantees have cut labor turnover, and thereby lowered other costs. The problems in steel, autos, appliances, etc. are far greater.
