...with a House-affiliated tutor. Neither of these goals should be sacrificed to "mixed tutorial." But "mixed tutorial" should be added as a third important objective by both large and small departments and by the Houses. With these objectives in mind, the problem of non-resident tutor offices becomes clearer. Perhaps these tutors will be given space at Radcliffe, perhaps in a vacant room left in a House after deconversion. It doesn't really matter. Radcliffe has had to walk to the Houses for tutorial in the past and won't mind continuing to do so, and Harvard students have...

...Larrazábal's junta took over Venezuela, Larrazábal has gone perplexingly out of his way to be kind to Communists. Last week, as the Provisional President held his first regular weekly press conference at Caracas' White Palace, his reasoning seemed to come a little clearer. Seven times during the 45-minute session the crisply khakied admiral was asked if he would be candidate for President when regular elections are held next November. Seven times he hemmed, hawed and refused to push his khaki cap out of the campaign ring...
