...central functions of an academic community are learning, teaching research and scholarship. They must be characterized by reasoned discourse, intellectual honesty, mutual respect, and openness to constructive change. By accepting membership in this community, an individual neither surrenders his right nor escapes his fundamental responsibilities as a citizen, but acquires additional rights as well as responsibilities to the whole University community. They do not require him to be silent and passive. But they do require him to see how easily an academic community can be violated, knowingly or unknowingly--whether by actual violence of by lack of responsiveness to widely...
...mutual benefit of this arrangement is clear. Says James H. Rademacher, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers: "I could buy every ingredient in Nixon's package if Congress retained its control.

He was then called into the Army and sent to Fort Bragg, N.C., where his commanding officer assigned him to write a guidebook to the base. That book was the prototype...
...matter of troop withdrawals, Hanoi has privately agreed to President Nixon's insistence on simultaneous mutual pullouts. The North Vietnamese insist, however, on maintaining the fiction of victory. While continuing to demand unilateral U.S. withdrawal, they would simply negotiate their own private "unilateral" pull-out with South Viet Nam-which would just happen to correspond with the U.S. schedule. On the issue of interim authority in the South, the major stumbling block, the U.S. has given up its demand that elections for a permanent government be controlled by the present Saigon regime. That, to be sure, is still...
