AN EXISTENTIAL RELUCTANCE

THE MAIL

To the Editors of The Crimson:

In your article on transfer students (The Crimson, April 9), you quote a student, Griffith Marton, saying that he found a reluctance among his fellow students and staff to discuss such questions as the purpose of East Asian studies. As Grif Marton knows, there has been a special weekly colloquium in East Asian Studies to discuss precisely such questions. Mr. Marton has not once attended. This is, of course, his privilege, but I marvel that a student could say that because he does not participate, it does not exist. Ezra F. Vegel, Chairman   Committee on the A.B.
