...situation will remain uncertain at least until the latter part of May, when all applications are due and many acceptances will already have been received. At that time, the Faculty will decide exactly how large a class it wants, and admit more students or draw up a large waiting list...
...Oftentimes this intelligent-civilization bit has been overdone," says Astronomer Schmidt, "but if you want to attribute anything to a civilization, then this is the best case we have had so far." The chance that pulsar signals do come from an intelligent race, agrees Arecibo's Drake, "does remain a possibility." At week's end, Cambridge astronomers reported in a second Nature article that a faint blue star had been tentatively identified as one of the pulsars, providing still another clue that may eventually help solve astronomy's latest and most exciting enigma...
...College and the University of British Columbia. Two are former Tussman students, who are likely to share his own notions about education. The demand for student power, as Tussman sees it, carries "peer-group consciousness" into the absurdity of a "children's crusade."

Harvard's Army ROTC unit, for example, failed last year to produce even the minimum number of commissions normally required to remain in existence. The requirement, of course, was waived, because the prestige derived from a long-established unit at Harvard is at least as valuable to the Army as the small number of short-term officers which that unit produces. The services, in short, are more sensitive to the significance of ROTC...
