...recorded version of Follies is an unsettling and unsatisfying experience. No care has been taken by producer Jones to allow the richness, which Sondheim reveals at his own speed, to surface. Too much time was spent attempting to cut corners and none was allocated to producing a coherent artwork, which onstage the score obviously is. The album is a commercial venture in the worst sense of the phrase and to use Sondheim's own words...
Mather has no artwork, either. Although Carlhain designed some genuinely imaginative art for the House (an enormous clock to fit inside the library's circular staircase, a huge dining hall mural spewing skim milk from trompe l' oeil spouts), all of it was eliminated in the budget trimming which also deprived the student rooms of carpeting and closet doors. Noise pollution, too, is a problem: there is no division between bedrooms in the doubles, and it has been suggested that at Mather, the sound of one hand clapping in the Dining Hall can be heard in the Junior Common Room...

Though less sensational than the two other freak comics, HEE HEE's artwork is uneven and lacks even a minimal thematic continuity. From titles like "Voyage to See What's on the Bottom of the Toilet Bowl" and "The Man Who Bites," the comic sounded like an instant winner, but both stories are incomprehensible jumbles of Martian deserts and bathrooms. Others include a giant mouse that chases both Americans and the Viet Cong out of Vietnam and a scientist who tries to change the direction of Western culture by involving everyone in a game he calls "Life." The best story...
Witnesses saw three teenagers-two boys and a girl-throw rocks at the window of the Ferdinand Roten Gallery, 26 Dunster St. The three then ran down Dunster St. towards the Charles. There appeared to be no damage done to the artwork in the window...
