...midst of the high-flying rhetoric and masturbatory manoeuvring of the last two weeks, the UC has achieved a most alarming feat of alchemy. In spite of its funds’ being “frozen” by the College, it has continued to fund parties and student group events as if nothing has happened...
...woman and leader. The costuming is superb, at times making her appear ethereal and virginal; at others, tired and crumpled.
