...most that the U.S.-Belgian proposals might achieve would be to make it easier for such moderate African na tions as Nigeria, Tunisia and Sierra Leone to lend moral support to Tshombe.

A good Gen Ed program depends upon professors spending time energy and thought developing good courses. The courses created in this manner have been the ones that have been most successful. There is no need to restrict the professor to a certain image of a Gen Ed course.
