...CCSR displayed an equal ignorance about realities in South Africa in its argument not to support an IBM shareholder resolution forbidding computer sales to the South African government. The Corporation claims the resolution would prohibit sales to such harmless institutions as hospitals and schools.

While the actual requirements are not excessive--only six courses--many concentrators resent the required logic course because the material is too technical. "It was mathematics, not humanities. We just learned to work with mathematical systems and equations," James L. Matory '82, who switched from Philosophy to Social Anthropology after one semester, says. Although he readily admits that students experienced in math tend to do better...
