...Crimson editors, in implying a Christian bent on the King-Driskell campaign, reveal their failure to examine the platform for its specific, nonpartisan and progressive goals. They have fallen prey to the very slander that was an attempt to divert the message of the campaign-making it that much clearer that Harvard lacks the attributes of the true community King and Driskell wish to build.

In fact, "sponsitility" plays an almost annoyingly large part in the storyline, giving a weird allegorical bent to the movie. These rather adult topics don't merge too well with the big bad wolf and the runaway monkeys; they don't fit the silly, epic quality of The Rugrats Movie...
