Abstract

Presents information on issues which resulted due to the New Left student movement of the 1960s. Information that after the rigor mortis of the New Left, many of its former activists and sympathizers chose to get advanced degrees and ascend the academic ladder to professorships in the universities; Opinion of Ellen W. Schrecker, professor of history at Princeton University, that the temptation to trade the frustrations of politics for the pleasure of scholarship is strong; Reference to the book titled "No Ivory Tower," by Schrecker; Note on the way the history of American Communism is now being presented by post-New Left historians.
