...also wish to express our support for the University's commitment to need-blind admissions. Other schools have begun to abandon completely need-blind admissions in the last few years. Harvard, which faces not only increasing costs but also a rising number of students seeking financial aid, continues to admit students regardless of financial need. Harvard also ensures that the financial needs of all admitted students are met. Currently, two-thirds of Harvard undergraduates receive some form of financial aid. However, if the cost of tuition continues to mount so rapidly, we wonder how Harvard can sustain this commitment. Thus...

...said. "This is a list of our contributions, and this is a list of yours. I really don't understand your attitude given these numbers. If you don't give the bank the statement, they're going to call the loan." She still couldn't bring herself to admit that in that event, she couldn't pay it, and it would fall to the Clintons.

There must then be a contemporary piece: "Memorandum on the Million Man March and the Maturing of Black Politics," by professor Martin L.

However, it might have been nice to address the reasons behind the Million Man March so that those who do not understand its positive influence...

...would also like to take issue with Mr. Brown's generalization that all Southern gentlemen were merely rapists and "craven degenerate[s]." Though it might be painful for the righteous to admit, our nation's father, George Washington, was a slave owner, as were Thomas Jefferson and numerous other prestigious Americans. Their greatness does not legitimize the fact that they owned slaves, but that ownership does not make them degenerate rapists. I also though that it was a bit presumptuous of Mr. Brown to call two sitting United States Senators "jabbering Neanderthals." Lord knows that many people disagree with...

...gumshoes also unearthed a domestic-violence complaint in his past, but Wigand takes issue with the dossier's claim that he "beat his wife." He does admit that he and his wife Lucretia had a serious fight in 1993, that 911 was called and that he volunteered to attend anger-control classes for about a week. "I don't think anybody is as pure as the driven snow," he says. "They've distorted the truth. It's not different from what they've done traditionally." Though he and his wife reconciled, in late January Wigand returned home from the airport...
