There were extreme right and left wingers as well as moderates. I hypothesize
that the decline of majors in business and engineering after WWII may have
caused a drop in conventional opinions on campus.

So far as Matt Baya is concerned, I can testify that he is a real person and
that he is working his tail off to save Antioch. I am sure he realizes that
mischievous people who assume spurious identities can do serious damage
through the internet. I agree that David Roger Allen '66 deserves to clarify
who the other Yazz is.
