...Indirect and general methods seem to us the most desirable. We have, thus, introduced the stimulus to experimentation in several courses, proposing such exerimentation in the projected Introduction to Education, as well as in the introductory courses offered by the disciplinary Areas, [divisions of the faculty: humanities, social sciences, psychology] courses which are crucial in bringing the disciplines to bear on the general life of the School. ...We should like here to propose, also, that senior faculty members take major responsibility for introductory courses, which require both a mature grasp of the subject's technicalities, and a relaxed ability...

Happily, some U.S. lawyers have never been afraid to defend unpopular people or unpopular causes-even if their efforts cost them dearly in money and community standing. In Birmingham, for example, Lawyer Paul Johnston last week began to pay the price of voluntarily representing FBI Informer Gary Rowe (by indirect request of U.S. Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach) in a lawsuit filed by Ku Klux Klan Lawyer Matt Murphy Jr. "It's not too popular to be involved in such matters around here," said one lawyer.
