EDITOR’S

NOTE

By Luke Buffini

I c ame t o Unive r sity because I w an t ed t o
be p art of a da wnin g in t elle ctual an d
cultur al li fe. P robably thi s w as a naive
ambition: the educa tion s y st em is
increasingly a r ac e against o ther
develop ed c oun tries t o p roduc e the
mos t na rro wly s p eci ali sed w orkforc e. I n
a s ense, th is gives us hop e. It means (a t
least) those studen ts who aren't here for
tha t p urp ose must be here out of a real
in t erest in ide as, c omm unity, or culture .
T his magazi ne i s about them .
