...Physicist Andrei Sakharov and smuggled to a publisher in the West last year. Sakharov called for increased freedom of thought in Russia and a deliberate convergence of the U.S. and Soviet systems. The Tallin Three go even farther. While openly praising the West, they condemn Communism for its low standard of living and call upon the people to rise against the regime. The document ends with the words: "Fight for your political rights! Don't be slaves without a conscience! Democrats of the U.S.S.R., unite, fight...
Changing the Standards. The Justice Department's request for a preliminary injunction to stop the merger was denied by Judge William H. Timbers of the federal district court in New Haven. He rejected the trustbusters' argument that economic concentration is illegal under the Clayton Antitrust Act.

...What do you get when you cross a home movie camera with a French Revolution? A camera that cuts everybody's head off."

I had learned enough about imperialism during the last three years to suspect that the members...
Because of the wide diversity in the size, the needs, the practices, and preferences of the departments, we do not undertake to recommend a standard form of student-faculty consultative arrangement for all departments. Indeed, in the case of the small departments, where relations between students and faculty are usually close and intimate, no formal machinery may be needed, and we see no point in proliferating committees for the sake of symmetry. We do believe, however, that there is a need for such consultative arrangements in the medium-size and larger departments, and we urge that they be established where...
