...hearing. I think that if you as a faculty have any pretense to due process and fairness you will review this entire situation and come to the same conclusion. (May I add another consideration: if the hearing I receive from the GSD is not a just one--and I refer not to the final decision reached but to the procedures--I will in all probability take this matter into the courts, which will prolong the issue even further. Your failure to insure proper procedure or your willful acquiescence in violations of your own rules will make it more likely that...
...could not quite repress the resilient spirits of Henry Kissinger. Basking once again in the kind of international attention that soars beyond an academician's dreams, Kissinger charmed a core of crusty newsmen at a Washington Press Club dinner. Who else but Kissinger would be so irreverent as to refer to one of Nixon's most embarrassing moments? "It is true that I have been getting kicked around lately," Kissinger said in apparent reference to the Anderson papers.

Exams were coming up, and one does not get graded on concern. And besides, it was really good weather for frisbee flying...
...also said in your letter "I do not see that the empirical data cited support such a conclusion with a degree of probability acceptable in a sophomore paper on statistics, especially if the massive environmental differentials between racial groups are considered." To what "conclusion" do you refer? As I said in my article, there is a black-white difference in I.Q. (and school achievement) in the United States. While the difference may be more or less genetic, we do not, at this time, have the data to permit a further conclusion. I would be interested to know what statements...
