Meet Jim Oberwetter, U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, which is America’s largest oil supplier and a key strategic partner in the war on terror. Mr. Oberwetter had never set foot in the desert kingdom before he became Ambassador two years ago. His resume boasts a stint as chairman of the American Petroleum Institute, which lobbies on behalf of over 400 oil and gas interests in Washington D.C., and work lobbying for the Dallas Chamber of Commerce, but no knowledge of Arabic.

...office space is so great that preserving Yard space is necessary to house all student groups satisfactorily.The assistant dean has consistently and unconvincingly argued that the office space in Hilles will be superior to Yard office space. There will be little privacy in Hilles offices that boast five-foot doors (to satisfy fire codes) and, improbably, translucent walls. The recently released office assignments show that many student groups will be sharing the office space between these light-permeable pieces of plastic.
