The Registrar's office of the University recently ceased the sale of names and addresses of past students to commercial firms in town. That they used to sell them has been admitted to Peter Cullen, and these kind of sales have now been stopped for student security reasons. Firms representing such organisations as Time magazine would buy names and addresses to forward advertising material to potential clients. The questions that must now be asked are; Who received the money from the sales? Did it go into administrative funds or into someone's pocket? If the former, in which area would it have been spent? And when did this kind of activity endear the University to the students subjected to it?
