I was in many ways a typical 1965 freshman: getting drunk on weekends, pulling all-nighters and cutting some classes, primarily to prove my independence...
...protest the use of the term Wasp as the equivalent of "Americans of the old stock." There is a comparatively small but very proud and loyal group of people in the U.S. whose ancestors were both Catholics and Americans long before the influx of ethnic groups.

He could aspire to follow in the footsteps of the Irish, the Italian and the German immigrant, who had preceded him out of the ghetto into middle-class success. Because of his color, the black man had no such expectation...
Stylistically, Picasso runs the gamut from the murky chiaroscuro of Rembrandt to a spidery line that Steinberg could be proud of. Technically, the prints are a virtuoso performance in which the artist often combines various techniques-etching, aquatint, drypoint-on the same plate...
