...Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit heard oral arguments in the case, Hosty v. Carter. Illinois Assistant Attorney General Mary E. Welsh, on behalf of GSU, made the extraordinary claim that the first amendment rights of college students are no greater than those of high school students, whose freedoms had been truncated a decade and a half earlier...

Orenstein locates the fairy tale’s earliest ancestor in a 17th-century oral folktale, “The Grandmother’s Tale,” and reproduces a version from the French countryside. Creepy and grotesque, the story is anything but a nursery rhyme. The wolf, waiting eagerly in bed, feeds the little girl (here, sans red riding hood) a jar of her grandmother’s blood and then coaxes her to perform a slow striptease. With each garment removed, he urges her, “Throw it on the fire, my child. You won?...
