...been lucky compared to some other students. We only get eight semesters here at Harvard, and most of us have already spent a few dragging ourselves through the Core. The College is taking a big step in looking at the Core’s failings and working to correct them—I only hope they can find a way to correct them while I’m still here...
...spring’s interview with H Bomb, in which he admonished Harvard women for giving men “free samples,” Mansfield was right back on his grind. Along with a tremendous riff about dining hall food, Mansfield drew blood on three separate battlefields: politically correct professors, the uselessness of benevolent activity, and the dangers of loveless sex.

Democrats have suffered from a politically correct-and rather condescending-unwillingness to speak truth to anger ever since the civil rights movement turned militant after the death of Martin Luther King Jr. The party has come to seem craven, weak and untrustworthy in the process. The only exception to this pathetic tradition was Bill Clinton's criticism of Sister Souljah's racist rap lyrics during the 1992 presidential campaign, a carefully planned gesture that was compromised...
