...Produced by Arthur and Sam J. Lewallen ’08, “The Foreigner” tells a comedic tale of a timid British man who enters the world of the Deep South during his stay at a fishing lodge in Georgia. Depressed about his unfaithful wife back in England, a shy and insecure Charlie (Gregory J. B. Marsh, HBS) is brought to the States by his fellow British friend “Froggy” (Justin A. Monticello ’09) in an attempt to cheer him up. The play then takes on a comical twist...
Ultimately, “Knock’s” treatment of these questions is discouraging. The show expresses a deep discomfort with its namesake’s “medicine,” suggesting that what may seem like a great “experiment” to better mankind through modernization is actually just the experiment of one power-hungry man.

The Federal Government has been similarly deceptive, producing rosy graduation-rate estimates--usually between 85% and 90%--by relying only on a couple of questions buried deep within the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey. The survey asks whether respondents have a diploma or GED. Critics say the census count severely underreports dropout numbers, in part because it doesn't include transients or prisoners, populations with a high proportion of dropouts...
