That such activity is so blatantly sanctioned by Harvard's liberal administrators is shocking. Why has Hillel received numerous public service awards for community outreach programs freaturing lectures like "Adultery-Schmadultery: what's a little coveting between friends?" How could they remain silent in the face of the formation of the Harvard-Radcliffe Hillel Onanism Group? Why has there been no fury over posters advertising Hillel's Sodomy Brunch?

But these days it appears as if Tarkanian's players enjoy a bit more than ribs and sodas. At a UNLV team practice last week there was no cookout, but there were plenty of fancy grilles on the player-driven Mercedes and BMWs in the gym parking...
Dowds terms the University's civic outreach program a policy of "rural pacification," designed simply to smooth the ruffled feathers of Cambridge citizens. "[Harvard's representatives to the community] are all extremely good at what they do...and they are all extremely determined that what Harvard wants out of the situation will not be denied," he says...
