...some 1.4 million college students around the country. Last week, a House-Senate conference cleared up some of the language (college officials are now required to decide whether infractions are of a "serious nature" and actually "contributed to substantial disruption of an institution's administration," whereas the original House form would have cut off the funds without a hearing or intervention by college officials), but the measures passed last week are still remarkably close to those initially asked for by Wyman in his impassioned House speech...
...students who disrupt universities, the restrictive amendments do not do an effective or decent job.

When Antonio reaches Paris at last, Carlos is nowhere to be found. Fellow Portuguese are friendly, but there are no jobs in construction work, let alone carpentry. A pretty nurse he meets tries to be helpful, but her world is too different from that of a poor, illegal immigrant with...
