...make matters worse, our institutions of higher learning have expanded much too fast, have under public pressure for more education for everybody increased enrollment beyond reason. The result is far too large classes. Many classes in our large universities are taught by teaching assistants some of whom, out of their own inner dissatisfaction and insecurity, tend to side with the rebellion. All this led to the anonymity, the impersonal nature of student-faculty contacts about which many students rightly complain...

In replay to a subsequent request by this newspaper, he sent us a list of athletic secretaries, double-spaced, to facilitate communication with these valuable sources of information. I imagine we regret the fact that after that we were still unable to increase coverage...
