...document to which she referred, in fact, is not a Senate Report nor is it a report of a Senate subcommittee. It is no more than a Committee Print which reports to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations the individual views of former Senator Clark. "The views expressed in this study are my own," the Senator says in the introduction, "and are not necessarily the views of other members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee...
...preservation of the institution is of paramount importance. The institution's survival in fact "transcends the private interests of individual students and faculty members." One can recognize the protofascist shortcut developing here. Instead of the democratic process of individuals influencing groups and the institution, we have the institution influencing individuals.

"Fledermaus" means "bat," but the title has almost no relation to the story of marital cheatings, mixed identities, and revenge. In fact, as the plot wanders from Eisenstein's home to Orlofsky's ballroom to the local jail, you realize that it's all just an excuse for the dance music. In the famous trio "So muss allein ich bleiben" ("I must remain alone, then"), Rosalinda--whom Gretchen Johnson plays with vocal agility but no sense...
