...best piece of work to have shown at Harvard in the last three years. The talented student cast delivered their own diatribes, as if they were written for a Forensics League contest "Picture the Millennium." Among the smartest was the entry from Dani D. Krasner '97, a feminist rant which evoked her frustration with below-grade men in painfully high-noted terms. Another excellent piece, "Something to Tell You," written by Visiting Director Elizabeth Swados, was a love song in which a male bisexual and female bisexual reveal their orientations to each other at the same time as their "love...
...posture, vulture profile and Isro hairdo, plays the familiar failure--a disappointment to his parents and bosses. Only his wife Alison (Mary McCormack from TV's Murder One) sees that this guy has star potential if he'd just be his horny self on the air.

This week, though, I have been stirred to actually delve into the world of the classroom...
...read with dismay on the Internet your staff editorial of Oct. 29, 1996 ("Peninsula's Rant: Staff Culpable, Swastika Harmful") concerning Jose Padilla and the Peninsula. Given the condescension and closemindedness with which you, the staff of a newspaper at one of America's finest colleges, insult and dismiss the views of the Peninsula, it should come as no surprise that someone a little less responsible than you chose to tack a swastika on Padilla's door...
