...that students who accept Sophomore Standing and stay four years can "abuse" the program to reduce their Core requirements. But 57 per cent of 569 undergraduates polled by ERG last spring felt that course flexibility was a legitimate reason for an Advanced Standing Program.

Finally, Congress has less reason than ever to give the President what he wants because his support continues to crumble.

Cousine managed this difficult trick; it simply showed two ordinary but agreeable people falling in love and taking delight in each other, utterly without benefit of story. Kurys tries for the same artful simplicity. She introduces an appealing girl of 13 named Anne (Eléonore Klarwein) and her more worldly and matter-of-fact sister Frédérique (Odile Michel), who is 15. The director merely ob serves their small adventures as they...
