Beyond the Teacher. Another scholarly convert to trots is Dante Expert Aldo Bernardo, humanities chairman of S.U.N.Y.'s Binghamton campus, who once considered it criminal to read The Divine Comedy in anything but the original. "If the kids have to be exposed to an interpretation of this stuff," he explains now, "it had just as well be mine." Actually, as Beebe sees it, some of the opposition has come from teachers' fear that the guides "may put into the hands of the students more information about a given work than the teacher knows himself."

More than half of this year's Harpur freshmen were in the top tenth of their graduating class. The school is especially strong in Renaissance studies under Humanities Chairman Aldo Bernardo, who passed up an Ivy League Italian Chair from his alma mater, Brown University, to stay with S.U.N.Y.

...occasions during the past twelve months, the government barred its correspondent Jacques Guillemé-Brulon after he had attacked Information Minister Manuel Fraga Iribarne, who administers the press law, for "totalitarian" practices. Life has also been hard for the reporters covering student and worker demonstrations. Earlier this year, Aldo Trippini, U.P.I, bureau chief in Spain, was badly beaten by police armed with truncheons at the Uni versity of Madrid. Two U.S. TV reporters-NBC's Al Rosenfeld and ABC's Har ry Debelius-were picked up by the police while they were trying to cover demonstrations...
