I would like to think that
Mr. Bill Elwood was misquoted
in your article concerning the
Transition Program. If the
statements were correct, I, for
one, was insulted, being a
Transition student last
summer, and also being the
fourth college educated in my
family.

As for my "non-bookish"
culture, I read "Playboy" and
The Adventures of Don
Quixote just like everyone else.
I do regret, however, that I had
never before reached such a
preferred reading list as The
Magic Christian, Understanding
Physics, and Malcolm X, as set
forth by the program.

Looking over some of the
wrong statistics in the article,
I'd like to say that I sincerely
appreciated Mr. Elwood and
his "adventurous program."
It's a pretty good program–I
would even recommend it to
the "obvious winners."
