Fellowship or collectivism if you wish isn’t a modern, smart way of life or a status promoting gimmick in the wake of the student movement. Nor is it bound up closely with trend, hippie culture or any other phenomenon possessing a common characteristic in that they will not survive the era that

in fellowship, solidarity only by standing shoulder to shoulder. Only many together can solve problems that can be solved only by the joint efforts of many together.
Development is brought about only through the influence of great numbers of people. Generations have learned that the world changes only when many people take a hand in changing it.
