...sunny San Diego campus of the UC system, Marcuse did little but walk the beaches with his crowd of devotees. Clumps of five or six Marcusians would discuss revolution as they strolled from the UCSD campus to their beach houses in affluent La Jolla, but there was little real revolution brewing at UCSD. Marcuse's books, of course, exerted an enormous international impact.

...they have been in the past. "Revolutionaries" at such schools as Columbia and San Francisco State have shown an almost incredible inability to relate means to ends in any rational manner: by making their revolutions within the university, they have jeopardized the revolutionary capacity of the university in the real world outside.
