Turkey and the E.U. Your notebook item "how to talk to Turkey" [Sept. 26] reported on Turkey's decision to try its well-known author Orhan Pahmuk for "publicly denigrating" the nation. As you noted, this prosecution could count against Turkey's bid to enter the European Union. Advocating for Turkish E.U. membership in order to encourage a kind of moderate and democratic Islam can be a noble mission. Nevertheless, the E.U. should not ignore popular opinion.

One time he looked at me with an expression of utter lunacy and whispered, “Dude, I think it’s open.” We proceeded to stockpile almost every item in the snack machine. When we returned with another plastic bag to finish the job, we found these three douches getting nabbed by the 5-0. This was the closest I’ve ever been to feeling “untouchable...
...docket committee prepares the agenda for each full Faculty meeting and its members are among the few with the power to shape the agenda of highly-scripted Faculty meetings, though any faculty member can offer an item for discussion. During Faculty meetings, the docket committee members also have procedural powers—last spring, the committee members recommended extensions to the two tense meetings preceding the no-confidence vote, and they counted the ballots cast in that vote on March...
