...With respect to General Education, I would raise the question whether it is sound to classify courses only according to broad fields of knowledge.

Nevertheless, one wonders whether additional groups of courses could be established which are more directly related to important educational aims. Could one provide a series of courses on basic statistics, quantitative methods, the computer, and other "languages" that...
...heartland over a period of two weeks, had left the capital of North Viet Nam a stricken city, rapidly emptying of people, without electricity and in some places water, many of its streets and even whole quarters smashed and cratered by the ferocity of daily U.S. bombing raids.

One afternoon last week, as they waited for their children to return home from school, the largely Polish, Lithuanian and Italian inhabitants of the Chicago Lawn area heard a sound they instantly mistrusted. Recalled Mrs. Pat Kjos: "I was in the basement, and I heard a plane go over. I just knew it was in trouble...
...sand, and ends by chopping her hair off with distraught, mechanical motions. Why is unexplained, lost somewhere in between Lazlo Kovac's dazzling photography and Rafelson's shortcutting. Understatement has degenerated into amorphousness. And Sally's final hysteria is just a sheen of sensationalism polishing off Rafelson's neat surface...
