The "students" studied Latin American politics and economics, the place of women in Communism, Russian history, ideology...

Some, of course, arrive with a chip on their shoulder and with a few choice words concerning Little Rock. These few have ample--indeed, abundant--opportunity to express their defense of segregation, Faubus, and States Rights, for they will find roommates equally eager to argue...
