...reflected in new buildings, new professorships, etc.), Harvard Law School has proceeded cautiously on essential questions of purpose and principle. Its only recent addition to the first year curriculum is a semester of legal history which -- like the five other first year courses -- is compulsory. The second year curriculum continues to require courses in taxation, corporations, and accounting ... Proposals to increase emphasis on legal writing and argumentation, and to de-emphasize year-end examinations, have borne no fruit. Student contact with local attorneys, city government agencies and courts is almost non-existent. Experimentation -- innovation -- is left for the most part...

As for the other Mustang-like new car, Mercury has sold 12,500 Cougars so far, and supplies are so short that any Cougars in dealers' hands are practically nailed to the floor. Almost the entire industry's inventory is healthily...
...reason for this is that all along Johnson has promised General William Westmoreland that whatever manpower reinforcements the general needed in the field, he would get. So far, the promise has been fulfilled: some 200,000 men will have disembarked in South Viet Nam in 1966 alone, bringing the year-end total of American troop strength in the field...
...Supreme Court, the Great Society, the Negro in America, the New Canada, Red China, Economics/ Food/Population, and a Calendar of World Religions. The guides are interspersed with a Cover Collection and monthly news quizzes, including a Vacation Review Quiz, a 100-question Current Affairs Test, and the Year-End Review. All this, of course, is supplementary to TIME itself, now used as a "contemporary textbook" by thousands of teachers in the U.S. and abroad...
