The University of Pennsylvania has been urged by its Trustees, by the in force. We recently negotiated successfully with the AFSCME for legislature and the state executive, by the Federal government, and by our increased productivity, hence economy, in our dining services. We selected students and their parents to be frugal and reduce costs. We are asked to external maintenance contractors only when they assured us they save without reducing quality in education or in research.

The second is our practice of taking Supreme Court decision might have a disastrous effect on our minority status into account in admissions decisions, which has a independence. I acted precisely to assure the right of the several history ofmore thanadozen years-and the sanction of Council, of faculties of our University to decide the criteria for admission to the faculties of most of our schools, and of our Trustees. their programs and, if they choose, to provide means for access to When Dean Louis Pollak and I first discussed the Bakke case those programs to all segments of our society.
