My object, in this paper, is to comment on the Worth Report proposals that appear to fly in the face of evidence from psychological research and theory. There is a great deal in the Report which is stimulating, though often marred by overoptimistic idealism, and by rather vague verbiage and silly or loaded pictorial illustrations. There is a great deal that I know too little about to have anything worthwhile to say. And probably, like most readers, I react strongly against some proposals that
appear to threaten my own status, values, and my own approach to teaching. I have tried to avoid all these topics, except the first, in what follows.
