...educational review seriously. Time after time, Rosovsky warned that competition for students is likely to intensify over the next 15 years, as demographic patterns change and as students find that many public institutions offer an education comparable to that they could find at Harvard--with a much lower price tag. Rosovsky hopes the current effort will creat an undergraduate program with such distinctive requirements and well-articulated priorities that all doubts about the value of a Harvard education will be dispelled...

It will be the largest meeting of disabled people ever assembled in the U.S. Half the official delegates, drawn from every state, are handicapped. A quarter are parents of handicapped children, and the rest are professionals in the field. All face a hard week's work, studying 466 pages of "awareness papers" and attending eight workshops to discuss topics ranging from psychological problems to chronic unemployment...
