...After loud applause and a hymn, some students stood up to voice their support for the movement for greater diversity at HDS. A Latino man and a black woman read poems they had written about minorities' struggles, including one entitled "Mr. and Mrs. White Guilt...
...Minimalists asked, what about an art in which "feeling"--other than the feelings of boredom and of nagging guilt at being bored--was, if not quite eradicated, at least not paramount?

But while a good number of teen romances of late have skimped on the quality (just check out the awful "Down to You," which starred Prinze and Stiles), "Save the Last Dance" is a movie that can be enjoyed without guilt. Yeah, sure, there's a lost generation of young folks out there who are buying Britney Spears records and 'NSync concert tickets and watching "TRL" on a regular basis and writing Carson Daly fan letters streaked with tears of passion. But that doesn't mean they don't deserve...
