With few exceptions, however, Democrats in Congress were angered by the President's decision-the first real break in the good fellowship that has existed between Capitol Hill and the White House since...
...future Radcliffe upperclassmen, discussions of inequities in prize and fellowship money may be obsolete by the time these things affect you personally. You may also be around to witness the effects of a joint Harvard-Radcliffe fund-drive to establish a $5 million endowment for Radcliffe financial aid. In the midst of it all, there are people like Harvard Corporation member Hugh Calkins '45 and former Radcliffe admissions officer Ann C.

A lifelong Episcopalian, Ford will continue to worship whenever he can in his "home parish," Immanuel Church-on-the-Hill in Alexandria, Va. Though Ford may get a relatively liberal slant on religion from Immanuel's rector, the Rev. William L. Dols Jr., he gets a fundamentalist pitch at home in Michigan. There he has nurtured a close friendship with the Rev. Billy Zeoli, an evangelical minister who is head...
