    "Neither the study nor the practice of public administration  . . . [is] responding in appropriate measure to . . . critical problems" of the day.  We need a "high level, critical assessment of the status and problems of public administration.  Where is the future of public administration, [public management, and public service]?"

    Dwight Waldo, Albert Schweitzer Chair of Public Administration at The Maxwell School of Syracuse University at the First Minnowbrook Conference in 1968.
