...student body used to Harvard-Yale T-shirts with bulldogs fellating a pilgrim, the outrage BGLTSA expressed over this particular shirt came to us as a surprise. While saying “Yale Sucks” does seem to stigmatize the actions of homosexual males and heterosexual females, the graphic and anthropomorphic representation thereof would seem to be even more offensive.

By adding his own purely visual commentary, Kuper essentially doubles the power of the book's social message. The swirling winds turn into predatory monsters when Jurgis loses his job, for example. In spite of its bleak story, "The Jungle...
