MacCaffrey says the numbers of students leaving "would have to increase manifolds before we had the problem of empty beds." As Martha F.

CUE member Henderson argues that the University considers the program an extra goodie to list in the college catalogue, "something else they can point to and say, 'Look what we have,'" without expending much energy.

The party maintained its plurality in the 511-member lower house of the Diet by winning 248 seats, only one less than it had in the previous parliament; the L.D.P. stays in power because it has the assured support of ten independents, which will give it a voting majority of two. Moreover, Japan's second biggest party and the L.D.P. 's main opposition, the Socialists, captured only 107 seats, a loss...
