...with a verve that betokens real interest. Its 14 pages remain somewhat amorphous despite the bright titles which have been assigned to numerous department headings, but it is none the less a remarkable symbol of a new collegiate expressiveness, is thoroughly readable, and provides much instruction concerning the undergraduates' point of view both within the lines and between them...
