Thus concludes the "Resolution on Rights and Responsibilities" voted on April 10, 1970 by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. Implicit in it is basic equality for all members of the University in "free expression, free inquiry, intellectual honesty, respect for the dignity of others, and openness to constructive change."

The moral certainty that once propped up satire has faded also. Wolfe is too canny to convey any advice except an implicit "knock it off." If he went further, he could easily spend the rest of his days on the chicken-salad circuit, pumping for apple-pie virtues. He would no longer be a purveyor of satire but a target...
...Arafat's role grew out of the frustrations of his early years the study is in a sense sympathetic towards its protagonist--although the reader is not left with a particularly warm regard for Arafat. Kiernan's treatment is admirably detached and well-balanced--his critique of Arafat is implicit rather than blatant...
