...Underemployed, and vastly swelling migration of the Underemployed to the city. Having plenty of excess Underemployed Housing around to absorb large numbers of immigrants, the city winds up with the same sort of problem in the end, but on a larger scale. In addition, because Underemployed require higher percapita tax expenditures for police and welfare, the local tax burden rises. This has the effect of further discouraging construction of New Enterprise, and depressing upward job mobility...

This would mean a college made up of the very bright, on scholarships, and the very rich. If there are enough of the very rich...
...convinced that the situation is terrifying or even extraordinary. It does not seem much more sane to find an underlying cause for twenty-six suicides, than to try to prepare vital statistics from twenty-six isolated deaths. Nor are we sure that the percapita suicide pate is higher in colleges now than it was say twenty years ago. It approximates about one suicide to 5,000 students. It is not at all surprising that increase in the gross number of suicides should come with the tremendous increase in the number of students in college. Furthermore, even a per capita increase...
