Students should be allowed to invite and to hear any person of their own choosing. Those routine procedures required by an institution before a guest speaker is invited to appear on campus should be designed only to insure that there is orderly scheduling of facilities and adequate preparation for the event, and that the occasion is conducted in a manner appropriate to an academic community. The institutional control of campus facilities should not be used as a device of censorship. It should be made clear to the academic and larger community that sponsorship of guest speakers does not necessarily imply...
...their martial caste decorating the walls and the reproachful gaze of full-length ancestors in oils staring down on them. Others converted their palaces into hotels. The Rajmata's former kingdom of Gwalior is now a quiet, ordinary part of the state of Madhya Pradesh. The lavish royal guest house is a Girl Scout training center, and the main palace is a museum that charges 300 a head for admission. Many out-of-work princes drifted into the foreign service. Some took a fling at business; the Maharajah of Cooch Behar even organized tiger-hunting safaris, complete with flush...
Johnson was presumably remembering the time of the Watts riots when he tried to reach Katzenbach, then the Attorney General, only to learn that he was weekending on the Vineyard.

...blue knee socks, red pants, buckled shoes and jaunty red cockade, its one-ton Baccarat crystal chandelier in the lounge-and a main floor men's room copied from Napoleon's campaign tent, with toilet paper in saddle bags and spigots of 18-karat gold. No two guest rooms are alike, and once a guest settles on a favorite, he is likely to insist on the same room year after year. Three suites are patterned after the chambers of Louis XIV, XV and XVI. But Sophia Loren favors No. 414, the so-called Royal Suite, copied from Josephine...
...summer residence in 1854 to please his wife Eugénie. The palace closed when the dynasty fell, but it reopened as a hotel in 1894 and has been one of the world's finest ever since. La specialité de la maison is pamper le guest. Winston Churchill became a regular only after the hotel at its own expense installed a custom-built, old-fashioned bathtub complete with bronze legs, just like the one in his London town house. Says Palais General Manager Roger Boltz: "As long as there are people who want to live in a select...
