Tuck School

THE WEATHER MAN has been waging a one man campaign against skiers in Hanover. We are not certain what the official count is on inches of snow but one layman can report to another that at this moment the grass is barely covered.

Outside of this one marked departure from the usual norms, Tuck School rolls on according to schedule. The new curriculum seems to be working out very well. Business Law and Business Organization and Management were completed before the Christmas holidays began and the courses in Production and Marketing are now in progress. The latter course overlaps the two semesters. Eventually we hope to get away entirely from the somewhat artificial break between semesters since all the work has a real continuity and the semester break is quite artificial from our point of view.
