There is real concern for the context of the work being done
in the universities today. The assumption that professors can concern themselves only with their specialties, and that the
results will somehow be used for the good, is bankrupt, shot.
Too many bad results have come of well-intentioned work.
The old intellectual structure is breaking down. Academic life
is going to have to rearrange itself so that it can deal with consequences and responsibilities. The shallow optimism of the specialist system is no longer tenable.
