...will be facing scenic, park-like Harvard Yard. Well, not so scenic this year, because they will be digging up the water pipes underneath it. But don't despair, even here the shadow of the New England past can be seen, because the pipe-diggers have uncovered a load of Indian artifacts in their trenches. As the archaelogists sift through the dirt you might contemplate the ironies of the Indians' situation relative to Harvard. The tradition here is very much the white man's layered over everything that had the impunity to come before...
...preliminary study that shows that close to half the approximately 100 Gen Ed courses might, with modifications, qualify for inclusion in the Core. "This is clearly just a ballpark figure," he warns, stressing that the study is aimed mainly at determining fiscal effects of the increased teaching load that could result from the Core's implementation. Still, he notes that some courses--mostly introductory courses in the Natural Sciences "clearly meet the Faculty's relatively explicit criteria." Others, including offerings in the Humanities on film and related topics, "clearly don't make it," he says. After concluding his evaluation...
...Revenge, Edwards parodies The Godfather and The French Connection, and--perhaps learning from his past mistakes--he keeps it domestic and visually smaller. He also lightens Seller's load by giving him a large and funny supporting cast, and the somewhat reduced chores enhance his appeal. Clouseau still mucks up his vowel sounds and takes a good many falls, but Edwards doesn't labor these gags as much as he did last time. One can hardly call him restrained, but he's comparatively restrained. Admittedly, the plot is harebrained and the climax, set in a fireworks factory, fizzles, but there...
...more interesting than the course catalogue, and a lot more informative. The Confi-Guide tells you what a course is about, how well it is taught, how difficult it is, and whether the work load is going to cut a hole in your love life. Better still, the Confi-Guide is written by students who have lived through the courses, not the administration or the faculty. It's like having 100 upperclassmen advisers...
