The New School for Social Research was not founded for interested graduate students who did not want degrees, as J. Kirk Sale asserts ["The New School at Middle Age," July-August 1969], but for interested adults of varied educational backgrounds. The average instructional cost of New School courses is not $450-$550, but considerably higher. It is not true that "nobody is checking to see what really goes on" in the planning and conduct of and business schools within the same universities.
