Work-study programs, such as that worked out at Harvard by Dean Monro and Dustin M. Burke- '52 director of Student Employment, for example, have served as prototypes for the recent government proposals. And the larger universites have not been the only ones to play a part in laying the groundwork for national change; Dean Monroe cites the University of Southern Illinois as a small college with an excellent work-finance program that contributed to the planning...

Attempts at solving financial problems of higher education have not islation. When Senator Abraham always led to sound proposals for leg-Ribicoff of Connecticut proposed as income tax reduction for families supporting college students, educators--including Dean Monro--pointed out that the measure would bring relief only to middle- and upper-class families.

Hard as it is to believe, the new plan looks worse. Its only virtue is that it frees the Masters' time. Beyond that, it has substantially eliminated student choice, for very few freshmen are likely to be committed enough to one House to write Dean Monro a letter. Furthermore, as one Master commented last spring, the new plan may lead to a massive system of string-pulling. If a freshman happens to know the right people, he may be included on a Master's list of requests; if not, he is unlikely to have a good enough reason to convince...
