Negro Sociologist Nathan Hare, who has a doctorate from the University of Chicago, supervises 15 courses, ranging from Avant-Garde Jazz to Ancient Black History and Swahili, but considers both the range and volume inadequate...

The worn coin of alienation is still legal tender, though it appears to be passing into more active hands. Says Robert Haas, a 27-year-old San Franciscan whose poems gracefully bridge the concerns of traditional techniques with the growing influence of forthrightness and social consciousness: "It became clear to me that alienation was a state approaching to sanity, a way of being human in a monstrously inhuman world, and that feeling human was a useful form...
