SR/UP FRONT:
THE CORONATION OF RICHARD NIXON By Lucian K. Truscott IV -- In which our author takes the reader on a picaresque tour of the recent regal proceedings at Miami Beach:
"At their parties, even in the elevator going to the tenth floor, these ladies in their long, flowered skirts and phruufffed-up hair, these gentlemen in white shoes and white belts and 1968 flared-bottom trousers, looked vaguely guilty, because this is a political party making love to itself.".
"I stopped briefly next to Tricia and Julie and Edward and David . . . I was,. . drawn to this high quartet as they stood there, looking for all the world as if they were in the receiving line of a high-school prom. Only the boutonnieres and wristlet flowers were missing.".
"The uneasiness I felt when I first got here has subsided, and more than enough exposure to the crazies who inhabit a good portion of Flamingo Park. , has worn on me to the extent that I now feel more at home around beaming, shiny, young Republicans.".
The Number-One Unimpeachable Source By Barnard Collier -- Do you remember that story about Thomas Eagleton's drunken driving, which Jack Anderson leaked? (You all remember Thomas Eagleton, don't you?) Well, here is how the rumor started.
EDITORIAL: Life and Learning By David W. Cudhea -- A statement of purpose for this first issue of the new monthly SR/Education.

The Schools and Equal Opportunity By Mary Jo Bane and Christopher Jencks -- The authors of a major new report on equality and inequality in school and society contend that the schools won't solve many of our problems. In fact, they say, equal opportunity won't provide equal results.
NIE: New Life for Research By James Brann -- A new federal agency is trying to find out whether educational research can beef up classroom performance, Berkeley's Experimental Schools By Diane Divoky -- An on-scene report about what may be the most diverse and innovative public school system in the country.
How to Find the Live Ones on Children's TV By Christopher S. Wren -- Despite the glut of "animation" (i.e., cartoons), children's television is changing -- for the better. There are even some programs worth watching on Saturday.
University Without Walls: Reform or Rip-off? By Herbert London -- The director of the new UWW program at NYU exposes the dangers of allowing 'experimentation" to become an end in itself.
A System Designed to Be Beaten By James Cass -- Representatives of eight experimental colleges get together to discuss common problems and prospects.
How Did We Lose the Wheel? By Neil V. Sullivan -- One reason the schools aren't working, according to one of the nation's most experienced administrators, is that their governance is all awry. A forthright -- and simple -- proposal for reform.
SR Education Update By Peter A. Janssen -- The political and emotional furor over busing still overrides the real issue: how to provide quality education for all children.
Hey Man, What Did You Learn From Reform School? By Brian Vachon -- Reform schools are usually the first way station on the road to lifelong institutional- ization. But Massachusetts has eliminated all its reformatories. Will this experiment lead to a complete overhaul in the nation's handling of its juvemle offenders?.
