...appreciate the efforts of Memorial Hall/Lowell Hall Complex officials to try to make the commons more than just a place to do homework or grab a bite to eat. The coffee house already plays a wide range of good music on CDs; with live performances, it becomes an even more suitable place to relax and talk...
...above all their power over their delegate slates when it comes time to choose the nominee. But Dole has always had to be careful. Unlike Senators, Governors are not members of his court in Washington, embedded in the sticky rituals of Congress. They are princes themselves, with their own bite-size kingdoms and outsize egos, used to being in charge. Dole's brigade--George Voinovich of Ohio, Pete Wilson of California, George Pataki of New York, John Engler of Michigan and Thompson of Wisconsin--have a lot in common: they are energetic, well educated, modern and ambitious to a fault...

But walking the path of hubris that led Gary Hart off a cliff in 1988, Lamar Alexander insists he alone has the "new ideas" a new millennium deserves. So goes the sound bite.

Many have been kicked around for years, dropped as unwise, shirk the tough calls or come with so few details that they raise more questions than they answer...
...from scene to scene with dizzy velocity, the play attempts to cover all the aspects of modern love: jealousy, obsession, loneliness. There is no plot and no development; the nameless characters change personalities in each disjointed episode. It's about as profound and moving as a 30-second sound bite. The audience winces at lines like, "It is love. I will have to hide or flee"--a wince of sympathy for the actors who must recite such lines with a straight face...
