...Max Weber once called politics the "strong and slow boring of hard boards." The absurdity of the MassCan festival as a focal point for student activism quickly becomes apparent if one considers its irrelevance to the larger political community. If our generation wishes to make a difference, to influence politics in positive and constructive ways, it cannot simply indulge in infantile self-assertions of prerogatives to hedonism. And if editorialists wish their work to transcend the fruitless mockery of a peanut gallery, they must forsake their stylized satire for constructive engagement with reformers around them...

Many things go into the making of a movie classic, but Alfred Hitchcock's timeless thriller is inseparable in our memory from Bernard Hermann's eldritch, bump-in-the-night score. Through out the Golden Age of Hollywood, the music of composers like Hermann, Erich Korngold, Max Steiner, Miklos Rozsa, Alfred Newman and others was an integral--and often unforgettable--part of the motion-picture experience. What is Gone With the Wind without Steiner's haunting Tara's Theme, or Lawrence of Arabia without Maurice Jarre's heroic, expansive opening music? Why can't they write them like that anymore...
