...decisions break rather cleanly into two areas: the requirements issue and the Gen Ed Committe issue. The first concerns the pattern of extra-departmental courses each student must take.

...second alternative is to require a pattern of distribution without specifying a list of extra-departmental courses suitable for distribution. This would be a senseless system. It would assume, for instance, that courses in econometrics and history are equally satisfactory means of broadening the educational horizons of Nat Sci concentrators.

While the words "And you? Are you blind like a herd of cattle?" appeared on one screen, the TV cameras raked the audience and projected their faces onstage in self-conscious closeups...
