...Lest Voith and Gadgil take too much of the heat, the Haddock-Riley campaign seems to be having a bit of trouble in forthrightness as well. In their case, the issue is not about contradiction; they seem to have found the predictable key to nearly every student groups’ heart—more money. But what really hurts is what they’re not saying: if the UC devotes all of its current resources to increased House Committee and student group funding, campus-wide social events will be left without a dime.

Bosnia has been a tragedy of peacemaking turned against itself: the U.N.'s lightly armed blue helmets became virtual hostages to the Serbs and an excuse for Europeans and Americans not to use real force lest the peacekeepers be hurt. The collapse of international law and civil behavior, and the failure of the U.S. or Europe to do anything effective to stop the killing, helped subvert the idea that the world had made much progress toward the higher brain.
