During 1971 there were an estimated 12.5 million impairments of various types caused by injury based on data reported in the Health Interview Survey of the civilian population not confined to institutions. An impairment is a chronic or permanent defect, disabling or not, representing for the most part decrease or loss of ability to perform certain functions, particularly those of the musculoske...

Graduate students have been shafted as far as living areas are concerned since the construction of the new campus. Gradually, all else has moved uptown or further downtown to Draper, including graduate-level courses. Yet all of the on-campus graduate housing remains downtown, in Brubacher and Pierce halls. Grad students should be given a choice of where to live, and now that Indian is nearly fi...

Those who think the SUNYA campus is limited to uptown and downtown are sadly mistaken. There's another branch-Europe-and it's more easily accessible than most people realize. Foreign study can be one of the most challenging and rewarding parts of the total college experience, yet many students ignore or dismiss the possibility of participating in such a program. They seem to feel that this is a...

After the disappointment of not getting an NCAA bid had mellowed somewhat, Coach Richard "Doc Sauers was the first to point to the age old cliche, "there'salways next year." And next year will be the seventeenth time Doc has faced a next year. In the previous sixteen he has never failed to come up with a winner, and prospects for his newest challenge seem bright to him. Admittedly he will be lo...

The following remarks on the problems in the foundations of mathematics should serve to situate the Symposium on the Foundations of Mathematics in volume 23 of Dialectica, which was initiated by Erwin Engeler and me at the suggestion of Mr. Gonseth, who briefly introduced it in the editorial of that volume. Since the discussions in the twenties, in which the problems in the foundations of mathe...

The chloroformist to Queen Victoria for the 1853 and 1857 childbirths of, respectively, Prince Leopold and Princess Beatrice, Dr. John Snow (1813–1858) is widely celebrated as the “Father of Epidemiology.” Snow’s research helped London combat the waves of cholera which swept the city (right).

Both metronidazole and nimorazole (Naxogin) are highly effective in the treatment of Trichomonas infection of the vagina when given orally over a period of 5 to 7 days (Wisdom and Dunlop, 1965; Keighley, 1971; Moffett, McGill, Schofield, and Masterton, 1971; Cohen, 1971; McClean, 1972). However, Moffett and others (1971) consider that only about half those on standard oral therapy adhere correc...
