...labor. But actual education in the workplace is ultimately more expensive and less efficient than collectively organized socialization in public schools. Schools, then, developed primarily as mechanisms by which economically desirable patterns of behavior could be imbued in children before they enter into productive activity. The school is a model of the workplace...
...they militate against the study of a new, humane society. And they foster the illusion that there are no alternatives to an economic system based on contrived, sterile incentives, and operated for the benefit of the few. By ridding ourselves of this academic system, we will be creating a model of an alternative system of work--a system in which people work because they want to, because the work is in itself relevant and rewarding, because they are their own masters...
...Navy has sentenced Nurse Susan Schnall, 25, of the Oakland, Calif. Naval Hospital, to six months for taking part in a peace demonstration while in uniform.

Last week the Army discharged Last Harass Editor Dennis Davis, 26, a member of the pro-Communist Progressive Labor Party, as "undesirable" 16 days before the end of his two-year hitch...

So far, the legislatures of 16 other...

Because doctors are only now starting to agree on a scientific definition of death, none is included in the act. Instead, the decision is left to the dying man's physician. To avoid a conflict of interest-and overly hasty removal of organs-the attending physician who declares a man dead may not be on the team that performs a transplant...
