The article examine the ways in which university life university life has been altered by the research priorities of the cold war, and assesses the effects of the campus movement against war research. It is only in the past three decades that instrumentalities of warfare have emerged from organized scientific investigations, in which the talents of many researchers are pooled in the quest for novel military systems. Since the only reservoir of trained scientific manpower available for such work was the university community, it was inevitable that the nation's institutions of higher education be mobilized for the establishment of a military research network.
