...course options remain limited. As the academic year draws to a close, approximately 40 total Gen Ed class proposals have been submitted. And with only three Gen Ed meetings left, it is unlikely that many more courses will be approved for the fall...
...Operating Procedure - wants us to remember that Abu Ghraib was not an anomaly, an isolated incident that can be apologized for, swept aside, blamed on the ignorance and stupidity of the ?other ranks? as the British have always rather contemptuously called their dogfaces. It was, and it should remain, a central symbol of what is surely the most immoral and misguided military adventure in American history.

Dick Cheney, born in the same year as Wright, received five deferments--four while an undergraduate or graduate student and one as a prospective father. Both Bill Clinton and George W.

But Obama has been steadily chipping away at Clinton's once formidable lead among the superdelegates; the assumption, at least for now, is that most of those who remain would move to put Obama over the top if he emerges from the primary season with the most pledged delegates. To do otherwise would be to risk alienating the legions of new voters who, thanks largely to Obama, are participating in elections for the first time. Clinton's best hope...
