Well-Trained Outrage. Dean Manning sees Stanford Law (enrollment: 420) as "verging on the greatness of a Yale or a Harvard," exults in a fivefold rise in applications since 1958 that gives the school a golden chance for selectivity. He has expensive ambitions: a $1,500,000 expansion of the school's skimpy law library, ten more teachers to allow the present 20-man faculty to branch out into such fields as international trade and Soviet law. Although the university itself has just raised a record $113 million, Manning will need even more to fulfill his dream of "a great law school"-one that simultaneously trains working lawyers, leads in reforming the law, joins all scholars in philosophical inquiry and produces citizens "with a special capacity for outrage at injustice."
Already hard at work shaking Stanford-leaning money trees, Manning will also teach and do research on "how to preserve the integrity of local governments midst a burgeoning national government and a roaring national economy." If all this fails to keep him busy, he will doubtless turn up reorganizing California's education industry, while working out solutions for Southeast Asia in his spare time.
