Description

Cover Story, "Is College Worth It?" by Susan Crawford

Academic circles are awash with conversation on the value of higher education in terms of a "rate of return" on a college investment. This questioning as to the value of a college education began, or became widespread, about a year ago with the widely-publicized publication of a study by two economists, Richard Freeman and J. Herbert Holloman.

The enemy is the heliothis, better known in the South as the common bollworm, whose devastating attack on cotton leaves and bolls annually results in damage to thousands of acres of cotton. A new ally to aid farmers in their war against the bollworm — a submicroscopic virus — may be forthcoming at Memphis State.
