Peter Selz, director of Berkeley's University Art Museum, observes: "Today's young artists reject pure color paintings as establishment art. They are more interested in changing our total environment." Nonetheless, aside from the majestic scale, the frequent emptiness and the su-persimple icons of the past three decades, there is a lesson to be learned from the Met's show.

Please excuse the little screed about "imperialism." To oppose the CFIA, it is first necessary to reject even the possibility of a successful development, measured in terms of the people of a country, by American investment. It is possible, I will admit, that after continuous massive doses of foreign aid, as in Formosa, an underdeveloped country can experience an increase in per capita income...

...curriculum, and degree requirements rests on their professional qualifications and on the fact that they must live with their decisions over many student generations, rather than over a short time span. To emphasize this is not to derogate the abilities or the perspicacity of students, nor is it to reject the need for a student advisory input on the curriculum and related matters through new or improved channels. But faculty and students are not equals in training, knowledge, and experience. To ignore greater educational qualifications and long-term professional commitment to scholarship in the shaping of educational policy...
