Terry took an A.B. in religion and the classics at Brown University in 1959. His interest in journalism began in high school (Indianapolis) where, as a 110-lb. freshman, he quickly broke a wrist playing football. A sympathetic English teacher suggested that writing about sports might be safer. Today, after his immersion in activities infinitely more lethal than football, Terry will become a student again, this time at Harvard. He has been awarded a Nieman fellowship, and will take a year's leave of absence from TIME to study the economic and political struggles of underdeveloped nations, as well...

...Referring to Stauder's occupation of University Hall, the Joint Committee stated that "it represents a singularly irresponsible abdication of a teacher's obligations to students. By encouraging students to persist in such activity-even, indeed, by failing to take positive action to dissuade them-a teacher thereby places such students as look to him for counsel and example in both legal and disciplinary jeopardy...
