VOLUME 14 Marlst College, Poughkeepsie, N.Y.
The Marist College CIRCLE is the weekly newspaper of the studeriis,
of Marist College and is published throughout the school year ex-i
elusive of vacation periods by the Southern Dutchess News Agency,
Wappingers, New York.

Plenn ,ng

· Planning, according to George B. Dantzig _and Thomas L. Saaty in
their book Compact City_ "is
an
adaptive, self corrective process, one
which avoids the assumption that the objectives we set forth for the
future
will.
remain forever inviolate .. A good plan should · contain
procedures for changing proposed ~olutions quickly as new conditions
and I><?lici~ arise. A ~exible approach is necessary
if we are to meet
the engenc~es of rapid change. The plan is or should be, the result of
the evaluation of many alternative possibilities." .
