He set up Short Term Institutes, which bring some 95 high school students a year to Andover for intensive sixto ten-week seminars in a single subject, and an accelerated math and science program for minority students at the school's 700-student summer session. With middle-class families facing ever increasing tuition costs, Andover is taking more and more of their children for just a year...

Sandol Stoddard's sympathetic new book, The Hospice Movement: A Better Way of Caring for the Dying (Stein & Day; $8.95), is already in its third printing.

OTRAG may remove the inhabitants and establish its own laws; its personnel are not subject to Zaire laws. The site borders on Zambia and Tanzania, and is only a few hundred kilometers from Angola--a fact that has made these independent countries understandably nervous.
