Warfield’s response to column written by Cal Thomas on the laziness of American education.

Warfield’s critical comments of a manuscript titled “Systems Research & Behavioral Science.”

Warfield introduces his system science research to his former colleague at University of Virginia who has recently become Engineering Dean.

Presents a twelve-point design for establishing what he feels would be a successful systems science program in a university. This was planned to be the fourth in a series of four articles on systems science in higher education. See also, “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education: Overview,” “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education II: Thematic Vulnerability,” and “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education III: Virtual Conspiracies.”

Focuses on the topic of the "virtual conspiracy" in which numerous forces act against the initiation and continuation of systems science programs (though without formal agreement or even, necessarily, intent, but with equivalent intensity as though there were formal agreement or intent) with unfortunate consequences. This was planned to be the third in a series of four articles on systems science in higher education. See also, “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education: Overview,” “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education II: Thematic Vulnerability,” and “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education IV: Orthogonal Extension.”

Deals with the weakness of Systems Science programs in the colleges and universities, by first looking at the history of science itself going back through the ages, then looking at the more recent status of science and only then placing systems science in this general picture. This was planned to be the second in a series of four articles on systems science in higher education. See also, “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education: Overview,” “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education III: Virtual Conspiracies,” “Obstacles to Systems Science Programs in Higher Education IV: Orthogonal Extension.”
