Long practice with the TASPs and in preferment and membership debates has rendered me unembarrassed but scrupulous about procedures for selection and evaluation, not because I think it is possible to create perfect procedures but because my experience at Telluride has taught me how large the gap is between the attempt at responsible, compassionate judgment and the refusal to make that attempt. Most significantly, I thmk, I have learned to function in a small cornmu- nity. The Telluride constitution, as you all know, makes much of the values of democracy and self-government. It has never seemed to me, however, that the baroque intimacies and selfconscious intensity of Telluridean social arrange- ments taught me much about participa- tion in a modem nation-state, except by the remotest of analogies. It has taught me much more directly and usefully about the creation of and participation in smaller social organizations: the committee, the academic department, the research group, the circle of friends. Most of us in Telluride are professionals of some kind, or are headed for that kind of career. and small. focused ROW I - shm,~uiron, van da ~lufiBiancmi. ~i&. hf~ausK. ow 2 -Aukenma Luradir..

One program recommended to, and accepted by, Con- vention was the Mansfield-Wefald Memorial Grant. Another proposal considered was the Telluride Grant Program.
