...number from his recent performance in the movie “Hairspray,” a student dressed as a cow burst onto the stage ringing a bell, in a reference to one of Walken’s most famous skits on Saturday Night Live, where he plays a music producer obsessed with adding “more cowbell” to songs. After his performance, a cast member dressed as a buxom bumblebee produced the “Pudding Pot” trophy and presented it to Walken with a kiss on the cheek. Walken was soft-spoken...
...long suspected: Concerning pedagogical matters at Harvard, the lunatics now run the asylum.After somewhat heated debate, and much delay, the Faculty finally mandated that professors must offer “Q” evaluations for all their courses enrolling at least five students.
