...academic mandarins can contribute little or nothing to the field. However, what they can do to it, and especially to our younger writers is quite another matter. One can only hope that among them there will be enough men with the prudence and good taste to walk carefully and considerately over the ground they have not tilled and crops they have not cultivated...
...recalled that several of the victims used to bed down with him on the library lawn where one of the murders took place: "I want this guy bad. He's already got three of my buddies.

Although the consistently popular professors continued to lecture to large audiences, they were not being followed by a younger generation that would take their places when they left. The risks seemed too great. In an interview with The Crimson several months ago, Robert J. Kiely, professor of English, said that he, along with any number of other faculty members, would be very hesitant to offer a broad General Education...
