To the editor:

Last week I spent a few days mingling with recent college graduates at MIT in Cambridge. What struck me most were their plans for the summer and next fall. Most of them had no college loans and held a variety of degrees. Summer plans for many included travel in Europe followed by graduate school because their parents had sufficient funds to cover the costs.
