Finally, Professor Levin seems to object to the statement that over half of the 45 graduate students attended the meeting. The CRIMSON stands corrected--there are 50 students in he department; however, if significantly less than half of the department were present, why have 24 graduate students signed the students' letter?

I was, of course, merely imprisoned in that bituminous vacancy which men call the Experimental Theatre...

Radcliffe dorms are not unlike Revere Beach for people who live there without wanting to. There is the same uncontrollable carnival of the senses in both.

But these complaints are abstractions on the periphery; the experience itself is too overwhelming...
