Last February, TIME'S Education Program sent a kit called "Black and White America" to 5,000 high school teachers for use in classroom discussions. The kit contains seven booklets, and it has proved so popular that requests for reprints have come in from all over the U.S. The kits are now available to the general public, at $3 each, from...
...have had 16 offers. It is expected to bring the President about $350,000; when he bought it in 1963, the list price was $135,000.

The young (under 35) tend to oppose use of nuclear weapons in the context of a Soviet-supported Cuban threat to Mexico by 43% to 40%, while their elders generally favor it by slightly more than the same margin. Those who voted for Humphrey in 1968 are against using nuclear weapons (44% to 42%). Nixon voters tend to favor...
...will be graduating in a few weeks. The suggestion that I have a personal interest in "grabbing" any "student power" is patently absurd. Furthermore, I hope that the next time someone manufactures a quote and falsely attributes it to me he will at least have the courtesy to use proper syntax...
