...Haddock said. “I think the UC’s restructuring decision is not what the student body wants.” THE UC GETS RELIGION At Monday’s meeting, the UC also voted to fund events sponsored by student groups that limit membership or officership on the basis of gender or religion. Haddock had ruled the previous week that the bill to amend the council’s nondiscrimination policy had not garnered the requisite two-thirds majority. But in what Haddock described as a “parliamentary twist,” a further...
...Speakers Associates April 18, 2001, the Pi Eta members put together a special agenda. Among the orders of business were to amend the bylaws to clear the board of Sigma Chis, request the resignation of Sigma Chis and conduct an election to fill all of the vacancies in the officership of the corporation.

AFROTC is not at Harvard or on any other campus to train students to go "tiptoeing through the tulips." AFROTC may need a little trimming here and there, but we hardly need the meat...
Sandhurst-trained David Niven never lets down the light comedy side of officership. As Blasi, Sordi lacks comic bite, and tends to be more laughed at than with. Director de Laurentiis seems to abide by some central-casting Geneva Convention that national stereotypes are immutable. The English are natty, tightlipped, unflappable. The Italians are sloppy, openhearted, fidgety. The film is unflaggingly amiable, and a few of the older moviegoers may be nagged by the recollection that the real thing was less jolly...
