See for example the account of a mentor—Thomas E. Duffy—that Susan M. Fitzpatrick gave recently in theChronicle of Higher Education (April 6, 1994) B3. That this mentoring warrants a letter to the editor bespeaks the author’s concern that it is endangered, an impression that I confirmed in private communication, October, 1994.
