Simpson was the guest of former Wyoming Governor and current IOP fellow Michael J. Sullivan, who ran against Simpson's brother to win the 1986 gubernatorial race...
There has been a lot of undue controversy regarding the Statistics 100 project that Mark Veblen and I undertook last spring. Our endeavor was gravely misrepresented in Juan E. Garcia and Edgar Salivar's guest commentary titled "The March of La Raza" (Opinion, October 21, 1996), and in an article by Devi Sengupta, a co-president of the Minority Student Alliance in the Harvard Independent (October 3 1996). It is not surprising that both commentaries completely missed the point of our project since neither of the authors asked for a copy of the our report. One would think that...
...name for itself as a school without exclusive clubs that dominate its social scene, the graduate boards must make sure that the new restrictions are followed. No kegs may mean that students will drink more hard liquor, but at least it will discourage free-for-all slurping.

Moyers begins each segment with a boiled-down version of the appropriate chapter and verse, narrated by an actor, either Alfre Woodard or Mandy Patinkin. Moyers limits his fellow conversationalists to seven per episode: but since Visotzky is the only guest who appears in more than two, the resulting cast comes to 39. It includes novelists like Bharati Mukherjee, John Barth and Mary Gordon; but also Bible experts, preachers, psychologists and a smattering of artists and poets. Among them are Catholics, Protestants, Jews, two Muslims, a Hindu, a Buddhist and several apparent agnostics. Yet in a choice that will reduce...
