...understandably cynical. Many students had come to feel that the Law School's administration opposed any sort of student-initiated change.

Its smorgasbord of noncredit classes ranges from "The Art of Singing Folk Songs" to the crassly commercial "What the Editor Wants: Media Placement in Public Relations." In the spring of 1965, the New School ran a course on the Warren Commission findings; this term it has a continuing series of lectures on the Viet Nam war-and it quickly signed up Harrison Salisbury of the New York Times for a 70-minute report...
