Rocky and Apollo Creed they ain't. Heck, Gore-Bradley II, the War of the Snores, had the feel of sixth graders trying very hard to convince themselves that they should have a fistfight. But you had to admire Al Gore and Bill Bradley, surely the most nonconfrontational of politicians, for at least trying to put up their dukes in debates that took place Friday in New Hampshire and Sunday on "Meet the Press." The subjects were wonkish - health care, education, campaign finance reform - but the subtext was clear: How willing were they to show a nasty side...
...Over 300 House residents signed the Mather House Creed, which stresses inclusiveness and the need for compassion and unity in the house community and is now posted in the house's dining hall...
After her baby is born in January (the father is actor Charlie Creed-Miles--another off-limits topic), Morton, now 22, intends to get back to work as soon as she can. But she wants it known she won't take just any job. "I'm not going to sell out," she insists. "I'm not." When Morton speaks--and even when she doesn't--people listen...

Rock-hop acts helped open the door for a more in-your-face sound; now straight-ahead rock acts are pouring through. The hard-rock band Creed recently scored a No. 1 album; Bush and Live, after hiatuses, have new (mediocre) CDs out.

No wonder...

Some reacted with indignation; most notably, the Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, Transgender and Supporters' Alliance (BGLTSA) organized a well-attended rally this past Tuesday on the steps of Memorial Church. Mather House students created a creed of tolerance, circulating a petition beseeching House residents: can't we all just get along? Mostly, though, the disinterested student response is the same as our reaction to any current event. Coup in Pakistan, too bad. Democratic primary debate, that's nice. Attack on my downstairs' neighbor, what a shame...
