...oddest graduate school in the U.S. is a far-out arm of the University of Chicago called the Committee on Social Thought. Physically, it is a dingy office under the eaves of the social science building. Its faculty, which includes Novelist Saul Bellow and Political Scientist Hannah Arendt, numbers only eleven. But its goal is as big as the world. While other graduate schools atomize knowledge, this one aims toward "a unification of knowledge and a revealing of the human being as a whole...
...handle such versatility, the faculty itself is a sort of vest-pocket university. Friedrich Hayek, the non-Keynesian economist, was a longtime regular. Hannah Arendt, a recent catch, is a famed expert on totalitarianism. Novelist Bellow is there, he says, because of his "interest in social questions. I like to keep in touch...

One half-cast comedy is The Owl and the Pussycat, by Wilton Manhoff...

It takes work to make a concert performance of Handel significantly more than an exercise in sight-reading. The Glee Club, Choral Society, and Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra supplied the necessary work last night. They made things "happen" in Israel in Egypt; conductor Elliot Forbes took good advantage of the vocal discipline which the choruses maintained...
