...vast field of evidence that shows what rapid strides have been made by economics in recent years. It used to be called the dusty dismal science theoretically abstruse aloof from the workaday would. In the present age when the economic is woven with or even dominates the political and social as never before it is a live alert science seeking to deal intimately with the work and the daily bread of the world. The economics courses in our universities today are crowded and the numbers of graduates who attend business school before trying their wings in a very complex world...
...Proportional Representation," Professor Johnson explained, "is applicaple in the government of any body of individuals, from social, commercial and labor organizations to college classes and to cities, states, and nations. It has long been advocated by sincere well-wishers of popular representative government, notably John Stuart Mill, who was fully aware to its value 60 or 70 years ago. It found acceptance first in other English speaking countries, notably Australia.

That it points to frustration, to some deeply-seated malady in either our educational or else in our entire social fabric, is premised by almost everyone. That anyone of them should have taken his life because of financial troubles, or because of mal-adaptation to his physical or his social environment, does not seem to have occurred to any commentator on the phenomenon. Novalis, who in reality died of sheer nostalgia because he was not born a Greek, has been said to have been the victim of a mal de siecle, and the four undergraduates in question, who probably...
...seem entirely unrelated to the somewhat sordid suicide of four promising American undergraduates within the space of a few weeks. The only explanation that is sufficiently vague to be true is that of failure to adapt oneself to an inevitable, remorseless environment, an environment of natural hardship and of social horror. The biologist would claim it to be the elimination of the unfit in the struggle for existence, and as such a natural and beneficial part of the law of life. The theologian must interpret it in different terms, no less valid. It is an integral problem of modern life...
