PARTICIPATION IN DECIDING these issues will put students in a precarious position--a position of trying to exploit the present structure's potential while pressuring for a far wider conception of the ACSER.

His Graudier Brzeska is Artiste Extraordinaire; sacreligious, spontaneous ironic, innocent; ahead his time and shunned for flouting truth that shock prevailing social mores Russell films a disconnected string of melodramatic conceits to give us this bravura story of genius martyred through the neglect of bourgeois complacency...
