...bottom line remains that had a Harvard student committed such a grievous error, intentionally or not, the College would likely turn a deaf ear to any excuses—particularly any that involve an over-reliance on paid assistants to do their research and writing for them. If Harvard is not willing to hold its Faculty to the same high scholarly standards as it does its students, then perhaps it should rethink its undergraduate plagiarism policy and do away with the charade of irreproachable academic integrity...
...Highlands have abundant coffee fields, pepper farms and rubber trees, but much of that recent prosperity has bypassed the Montagnards?French for "mountain dwellers"?who live in grievous poverty in tin-walled homes or rickety wooden stilt houses. They say their land has been encroached upon by Vietnamese migrants from the lowlands and that they have been subjected to religious persecution because many follow a form of Protestantism that isn't officially sanctioned...
Most important, however, the UM must communicate better with Cambridge’s varied religious organizations. Throughout this whole sordid ordeal, Father Woodruff has cited lack of communication as the UM’s most grievous offense.

What happened in Madrid was so atrocious as to seem inhuman...

Early in the campaign, Kerry committed the abomination of ordering Swiss cheese instead of Cheez Whiz for his Philly cheesesteak--that's almost as grievous as asking for a "splash" of coffee, as Bush the Elder once did. (Bush the Younger has been careful to let us know that he favors bologna sandwiches.) Furthermore, John Kerry speaks fluent French. It is no accident that a White House staffer once said, "He looks French." The Heinz Kerrys hang...
