[Alumni-chat] a side note

Today's New York TIMES carries the obituary of Judge (and Professor) Robert Keeton (Harvard Law; District of Massachusetts).  He was the brother of Morris Keeton,
who, according to the obituary, still lives (in Columbia, Md.).
    
Lest someone charge me with bringing in irrelevancies (like the charge brought, improperly, against those who mentioned the Minneapolis bridge disaster), I would note
that years ago, Morris Keeton, at an Antioch alumni meeting (I believe it was in D.C.)  said that the system (then with many units) was being operated on an accounting system that was inadequate for a single campus.
    I mention this only to point out that the difficulties that
led to the present situation are of decades-long standing.
