Early last year Marge decided to move to Florida, bought land adjacent to the Gulf Coast resort of Sarasota-and told acquaintances that she had induced her friends to head South with her. In April 1965, the Coppolinos settled in a white stucco home on fashion able Longboat Key off Sarasota...

The huge University of Texas (enrollment: 24,778) is the major partner in 60 consortiums, including one that provides for student and faculty exchange with its tiny neighbor, Huston-Tillotson College (615 students). The University of Pennsylvania opens its doors to students from eleven smaller colleges; they earn a Penn engineering degree along with the B.A. from their own schools in a five-year plan...
Forest of Faith. The Chicago survey also suggests that a disturbingly high proportion of parochial-school graduates cannot see the forest of their faith for the trees. Only 53% of U.S. Catholics with a church-sponsored education agreed that Christ's command to "love thy neighbor was more important than not eating meat on Friday," as against 61% of secularly schooled Catholics...
