Private higher education is in a ''fight for its life. " According to the American Council on Education, more than 300 private colleges and universities have been forced to "close their doors' , or been absorbed by state institutions since 1970-and many more are threatened. The Association ofIndependent Colleges and Universities in Massachusetts [AICUM] was established in 1967 to "preserve and strengthen independent private higher education in the Commonwealth, and to help create a climate in which the resources ofprivately supported higher education may be utilized to the fullest extent by Massachusetts citizens and students ... " Dr. Wilbert E. Locklin, a member of the AICUM Executive Board, has long been a proponent of the educational advantages of the private sector through more than 30 years in higher education, including service at the Johns Hopkins University and Springfield College. Herewith are his comments on "the plight of higher education" in an exclusive Bulletin interview. [Editor]

Springfield tied Delaware, 1-1, and Central Michigan, 3-3, but the opponents were declared victorious since they had the ball in the SC defensive zone more than SC had the ball in the opponents' zone.

Denise and Wendy The Anderson, both from Hingham, Mass., were named to the U.S. National Field Hockey Squad.

SPORTS SKILLS: A CONCEPTUAL APPROACH TO MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT Beverly L. Seidel et ale Dubuque, Iowa: Wm. C. Brown Co., 1975.

At the elementary school level, the idea of "movement education" has provided a new focus for physical education through a problem solving approach as opposed to rate performance. The concepts included in movement education theory have been expanded in this long over-due text for students and teachers at all levels of physical education. Emphasis is placed on the development of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains as they relate to specific sports skills. The Forward of the text is written by Dr. Glenn A. Olds, former Springfield College President and now President of Kent State University. [Suggested by James B. Robertson, Assistant Professor ofPhysical Education.]

There is no College because of the caliber of students that we now have convincing evidence to indicate that Congressional on the campus.
