...BGLTSA has long been a largely positive force on campus. It has sponsored programming essential to the cause of gay rights and has surely been an indispensable support network for countless students. However, like any student group, it has not escaped its share of problems. Last year, the stability of its leadership was marred by an election scandal. More seriously, it has increasingly been criticized for its failure to represent the full-breadth of its constituency in its use of aggressive and explicit advertising which has made some members feel excluded from the organization...
Gorey has said, "I was probably fully formed by the time I was 21 or 22." Indeed, his work, beginning with The Unstrung Harp of 1953, has been remarkably consistent: anachronistic, morbid and arcane from the first. Besides illustrating his books, Gorey's drawings grace countless engagement calendars and postcards, the animated opening sequence of PBS's "Mystery!" series, the covers of paperback classics published by Anchor Books in the '50s and '60s, dorm-room posters, and so on. If you do not think you have seen his work, you are probably wrong...

The challenge in bringing Animal Farm to life is not creating verisimilitude--there never will be a realistic talking donkey--but giving cuddly animals noble and historic heft. The film does so with a wisely chosen cast of voices (Ian Holm stands out as smarmy pig propagandist Squealer) and eerie visuals, from the crudely painted ANIMAL FARM...
...Lieserl, crisscrossing Switzerland, Germany, England, Hungary and especially Serbia. Even while bombs burst, she visited Mileva's ancestral villages, seeking her kin or anyone close to her family, including Serbian Orthodox priests and nuns, and holding many hours of coffee-table conversation, to say nothing of rummaging through countless baptismal records and archives for key documents. Many of them turned out to have been lost in the endless Balkan wars; others relating directly to little Lieserl may have been destroyed by Mileva's protective father...
