...submissions from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the Task Force found that the availability figures for women and minorities are often significantly lower than the figures given in generally recognized sources for women and minorities holding doctorates. Furthermore, availability pools, utilization analyses and projections in all departmental submissions fail to distinguish among associate professors, assistant professors, lecturers and instructors, despite the substantial differences in salary, responsibilities, and status associated with these positions. Underutilization is not even acknowledged in some departmental submissions...
...East German team placed second to the Russians in total medals. The only sport in which they had no impact was alpine skiing. "Contrary to what one sometimes reads in the West," explained one East German official, "we don't shoot our athletes at dawn if they fail to win. Socialism is identical with competition." What he meant was that in East Germany, sport is a political device to gain prestige abroad and keep up national morale. Highly organized programs identify promising athletes at an early age.

Particularly punishing are the 200-meterlong penalty loops that competitors in the relay race must run if they fail to break a target. It is all a far cry from the origins of the sport in Lapland, when dinner depended on a hunter's accuracy. Heikki Ikola of Finland could win the individual event; the Soviets and Finns will go head to head in the relays...
