...Department should also give priority to re-evaluating its "core" curriculum. It is not possible for the Committee to make a definitive judgment about it on the basis of our visits, but we strongly suspect, based on the student work that we have seen, that the student is not becoming sufficiently proficient in the basic techniques of architecture at an early enough point in his education...

The economic and military interests of the U.S. in South Africa are closely tied to the preservation of some kind of stability, and a radical government in Rhodesia would probably threaten the white South African regime.
