Besides, all this fuss about bringing more campus events to the Quad ignores the fact that the Quad has great events to begin with.

While I have little doubt that extending Hilles’ hours would serve some Quadlings well, the fuss made by the would-be library revolutionaries was totally gratuitous and, let’s face it, pretty annoying.

...With the publication of an English translation last month, readers around the world finally have a chance to see what all the fuss is about. Weaving an account of the sexual awakenings of four young women through different stages in the life of Catholic-priest-turned-rights-activist Saman during the brutal regime of President Suharto, Utami offers a richly nuanced exploration of a grim chapter in Indonesia's recent past. With references to real events and characters, Saman evokes painful memories of an era marked by land grabs, forced evictions and military brutality. "The authorities have the power...
