...many of our major Viet Nam stories. For Peter Kurd, who was a combat artist for LIFE in World War II, the frames of reference were many. He discovered that the Army officer who came to pose for the combat figure in the cover background had attended his alma mater, the New Mexico Military Institute. He has a 20-year-old son who before long will face a problem similar to that of this year's graduating class. Working in the faster medium of watercolor rather than his more familiar tempera, Hurd immediately liked his subject, sought to convey...
Only 30 himself and a Southern graduate ('60), Hill coached for two years at Florida A. & M., where he trained Sprinter Bob Hayes, the current world record holder (at 9.1 sec.) in the 100-yd. dash. Two years ago, Hill returned to Southern to build up his alma mater's record book. He works his boys six days a week, and if anyone gets uppity, Hill has a ready answer: "Let's race."

The film opens with a Commencement speech and booming alma mater refrains (which, unfortunately, reappear in the movie at the most unseemly times, like after an attempted rape) but from there on the story definitely gets better...
...Chalmers has a vision. His ideal is the classic "well-rounded man," and he points to Oxford, his own alma mater, as an institution which has consistently succeeded in producing such graduates. Undergraduate specialization is even greater than at Harvard, and the colleges must play an important role in general education. Chalmers feels that the Harvard Houses should serve a similar function; to this end he has acted to increase intellectual ferment within Winthrop. One feels he would be entirely happy if Winthrop could resemble Balliol or Oriel in the days when Jowett and Whately walked the earth--sanctums where...
