...province, of which Kwangju (pop. 800,000) is the capital. Cholla is the poorest region of the country, and was consistently neglected by President Park during his 18 years in power. The people of Cholla have long complained of unfair treatment by the central government. Most of all, they resent the fact that their area has been deprived of the industrialization that has benefited the rest of the country. When they learned last week that the government in Seoul had arrested Kim Dae Jung, they rose up in protest...
Substituting depth for breadth, the concentration's requirements, Goldfard argues, are the department's effort to systematically and rigorously confront common human beliefs and perceptions without the limitation of forcing these ideas into distinct periods. While the actual requirements are not excessive--only six courses--many concentrators resent the required logic course because the material is too technical. "It was mathematics, not humanities.

The Germans don't play American football or drive Mercedes, and they resent the wealthy foreigners who make no attempt to learn their language. Although the Germans respect American business expertise, they think of Americans as naive, ill-mannered, and offensively chauvinistic. American visitors often bear out the Germans' worst expectations...
...strongly resent the anti-German nature of S. Allen Counter's letter in response to Harkensson's movie. Mr. Counter seemed to be obsessed with the image of the inherently evil German. Why does he repetitively mention that Fran Hosken is Harkensson's German companion? I have never encountered a German woman with this name, but that is irrelevant to the subject matter discussed here. Whether Harkensson's assistant is German, Jewish, black or Russian is not important...
