...bars at night for "rap" sessions that lasted well into the morning. In Chicago, we listened to Jesse Jackson, heir-apparent to leadership in Martin Luther King's Southern Christian Leadership Conference. In Cleveland's Hough ghetto, the group stayed with families in ghetto apartments.

Heliotrope, an independent free university in San Francisco, offers courses in body surfing, howling at the moon and "bofing," which is Heliotropese for fencing with Styrofoam foils. Santa Cruz Free University has a class entitled "Of Course We'll Like It," a forum that guarantees the uncritical acceptance of unpublished poems, unpurchased paintings and unaired songs.
