...meaningless propaganda: the faculty chairman will vote only when his vote counts. The CRR is small, and a tie is not at all unlikely.

We usually keep that selection a secret until our year-end issue goes to press, but there could be litle surprise about 1977's choice. Indeed, the world's press watched as Egyptian President Anwar Sadat helicoptered to the Pyramids on the edge of the desert and joined Photographer David Hume Kennerly...
