DURING the last two weeks, many students have expressed anger over the way in which some mainstay Core classes have been lotteried. As various courses were limited, calls of injustice grew louder...
...past 25 years, now show overwhelming support for the death sentence. Politicians who fan the fires are seeking heat, not light, and they make reasoned discussion difficult. Capital punishment tells us a lot about ourselves and our willingness to create a moral code that rises above destructive anger and the call for revenge in kind. We seem to have a double standard about death: it is wrong to murder, but killing in reprisal is O.K. For those who believe all murder, including executions, is wrong, it will never be acceptable for society to kill in our name. The trouble with...

In the U.S., rage focused on the impersonal machinery of a military adventure that the post-World War II generation did not support and that few seemed capable of affecting. Rage also targeted an inert political system, manned by the middle-aged, that ringed its conventions with police, ignored the clamor to halt the war, and failed to heed the smoke rising from the ghettoes. In France, anger was directed first at a sclerotic university system, then at the Fifth Republic, which condoned it, then at the Republic's architect...
