When they enrolled in the institution, they would not only bring their federal scholarship with them, they would also authorize the federal government to provide supplementary grants to the institution to reflect the fact that the cost of a student significantly exceeds the tuition he pays. Now if one of the latter two points of view prevails, then the current strain on our budget will be somewhat lessened. If not, and the odds are against any action this year, cutbacks will become...

By thus accentuating the negative, Burger appeared to make it even more difficult for beleaguered school authorities to implement busing plans. Said one official: "Swann was supposed to be a landmark, but it's beginning to look like more...
...Invention are impressive enough, but the real "find" here is 15 Prints After Dürer's "Apocalypse" by 35-year-old Lubos Fišer (pronounced Fisher). Read musical episodes for prints, and you have a work that does not so much interpret Dürer, as reflect the austere purity of his graphic...
