Other harassment may take the form of embarrassing the student without making an advance. Allyson A. Gonzalez '83, says when she went to see a professor in his office, he insisted on using the bathroom while still talking to her, leaving the door open. Gonzalez and other students say from now on, if they need to visit his office, they will bring someone with them...

When women begin to publicly discuss and compare their experiences, they begin to see that pattern. Lundeen and others, however, say speaking openly can easily degenerate into "destructive gossip." But most women who have encountered sexual harassment at the University are more interested in having it stop than they are in smearing a professor's name. As Farrar says, "My goal was not to get him (the professor) into trouble; my goal was to get out of it unscathed...

...distinctively Woody Allen's quality that he doesn't say these things; he limits himself to lighter moods. Conscious that his comedy doesn't do justice to the world around him, he won't permit himself to generalize. The airs of Yacowar's flimsy elevated prose exactly betray this caution. Yacowar has written a worthwhile book about Hitchcock's British Films - we need books about Hitchcock, since it's dismally current for people to think of him as 'the master of suspense,' the public property, grand and genial. Most film criticism tends to be dull, especially the kind which tries...
