    Extractions: Beginning with Keynes at Harvard Rare is the child, I suspect, who wants to grow up to be an economist, or a professor. I grew up in a university town and went to a university-run high school, where most of my friends were faculty kids. I was so unfailing an A student that it was boring even to me. But I don’t recall thinking of an academic career. I liked journalism, my father’s occupation; I had put out "newspapers" of my own from age six. I thought of law; I loved to argue, and beginning in my teens I was fascinated by politics. I guess I knew that there was economics at the university, but I didn't know what the subject really was. Of course, economic issues were always coming up in classes on history and government — civics, in those days. I expected economics to be among die social science courses I would someday take in college, probably part of the pre-law curriculum. I grew up happily assuming I would go to college in my hometown, to the University of Illinois. One month before I was scheduled to enroll as a freshman, I was offered and accepted a Conant Prize Fellowship at Harvard. I should explain how this happened. My father, a learned man, a voracious reader, the biggest customer of the Champaign Public Library, discovered in

    Extractions: WASHINGTON - President William J. Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton awarded the 1999 National Humanities Medal to eight distinguished Americans in a ceremony at D.A.R. Constitution Hall on Wednesday, Sept. 29. The Humanities Medalists were also honored at a White House dinner. "The 1999 National Humanities Medalists are distinguished individuals who have set the highest standards for American cultural achievement," said William R. Ferris, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, which sponsors the award. "They are gifted people with extraordinary powers of creativity and vision, and their work in preserving, interpreting and expanding the nation's cultural heritage represents an incalculable public service. I am delighted to announce this year's recipients." The 1999 National Humanities Medal recipients are: Patricia M. Battin (Washington, D.C.) librarian who has organized and led a national campaign to save millions of disintegrating books published between 1850 and 1950; galvanized congressional support for a national program to microfilm these brittle books, thereby preserving their content as a significant part of the record of American civilization.

    Extractions: Launched by James Bryant Conant, president of Harvard University, and Henry Chauncey, head of the brand-new Educational Testing Service, it used the then-young science of intelligence testing to assess and sort American students fairly and dispassionately. The goal was to create a new democratic elite that would lead postwar America to progress, strength and prosperity. Currently a staff writer at The New Yorker, Lemann gained access to the ETS archives. The Big Test reveals the secret history of this major effort to unseat the quasi-hereditary white male elite that had run America. Lemann describes the consequences, for individual lives and society as a whole, of this effort to create a new meritocracy.

Withinfive years after Conant published his frightening insight ... the inner cities exploded indevastating riots [in 1965]. .. Participating pupils are taught by computers. ... One company supplying software forthese programs believes a student with two hours of computer lab instruction can equalwhat a student would accomplish in one month of regular classes... Education in America is a disaster. ... A [1984] study by Harold Stevenson maintainedthat, "by the fifth grade, the worst Japanese class in the study was ahead of the bestAmerican class."... Although reasons abound why education may be unpleasant, some are especiallycritical: Schools must bind students in a rigid mould where they have to receive instruction at the same pace as twenty-five to thirty others. ... Teaching to the exact ability of diverse student is utterly impossible without individual tutors. ... The solution is simple: free teachers from their usual duties and let computers teachstudents without an intermediary human instructor. This step will also permit teachers to use their talents and dedication in other more productive manners. ...

The Cold War Basic for the cultural background of Cold War America, viewed from a "nuclear" perspective, is Paul S. Boyer, By the Bomb's Early Light: American Thought and Culture at the Dawn of the Atomic Age (1985; reprinted Chapel Hill, N.C.: University of North Carolina Press, 1994, paperback).

    Extractions: An unexpected gift of $1 million came to Harvard in 1937 with a mandate that puzzled university officials. The directive said the earnings from the gift were to be used for a single purpose: "To promote and elevate the standards of journalism in the United States and educate persons deemed specially qualified for journalism." Harvard President James Bryant Conant shared with Harvard colleagues and leading journalists his uncertainty about how to satisfy the grand directive that accompanied the Nieman gift. He sought advice from many quarters. Walter Lippmann, the prominent columnist who was on the Harvard Board of Overseers, was among them. Lippmann had written thoughtfully years earlier about the need for journalists to know more about the complex subjects they covered. Publishers, editors and members of the Harvard faculty weighed in with ideas.
