...word of this generation is 'informality,'" Mansfield continues. This has attractive qualities to it, among them friendliness and easy-goingness, he says. But one thing "conspicuously absent" is "formality--respect, pride, daring, sacrifice. If a faculty member wants respect for his learning, his years, his position, if he wants conversation to not be laced with vogue words, he must stay in the Faculty Club." However, Mansfield says, he eats in Eliot House at least once a week...
