...discussion came mostly from the students and centered on the possibility of a student center, the positive and negative aspects of large versus small classes, and the importance of good pedagogy. Hammonds later added that she was not surprised by any of the topics discussed, as she had heard “similar versions” of each argument in prior conversations with students. She also said that the setting was more formal than she had expected—students were seated around a large table and each had name placards, while Hammonds wore a red nametag?...

He knew they had to be investigated quickly. The question was by whom. His own department, run by Clinton appointees, had an obvious conflict. A new independent counsel could be brought in, but not in time to gear up for the President's Jan. 17 deposition. He saw no alternative but to let Starr's office carry the ball. Reno formalized the decision...
