...Washington's National Gallery of Art, which jointly organized the exhibition, and then to New York City's Museum of Modern Art. In keeping with the randomness that characterized Dada, the Pompidou has organized the show like a chessboard, making it easy to move through more than 40 rectangular exhibition spaces in no particular order. Thankfully, there are introductory rooms that explain the importance of Zurich, a neutral haven for European intellectuals from Carl Jung to Vladimir Lenin; discuss the Cabaret Voltaire, the local tavern where the Dadaists met for conversation, poetry and drama; and introduce Dada's large cast...

...from most members of the GSD faculty, who will not comment. But while design experts stood by quietly, local residents protested the construåction of CGIS, and the City of Cambridge blocked Harvard’s initial plan to construct a tunnel connecting the two buildings.

After talking for 51 minutes, the two leaders invited Shultz and Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze to join them at the rectangular wooden table. When the meeting finished at 12:30, Reagan emerged and told a group of his top aides, "They've got a proposal. But I'm afraid they're going to try to go after SDI."
