...Senate budget resolutions collapsed. "I assume that means no budget," huffed House Budget Committee Chairman William Gray, a Pennsylvania Democrat. His Senate counterpart, Republican Pete Domenici of New Mexico, was equally gloomy: "Everywhere I turn I see no way to go." Senate Republicans were still smarting from what they regard as an act of betrayal by the White House. They had voted in May to eliminate the cost of living adjustment on Social Security for one year, a politically brave move, while the House had refused to make any cuts in old-age pensions.

Houses are rather cult-like organizations that command a startling amount of loyalty and fervor among their residents—especially in regard to House Masters. Masters occupy a rather pharaoh-like man-god niche in the undergraduate psyche. It could just be all the free pastry, but it seems that every student in the House system would argue that their Master is the best, the most “chill,” the most interesting—all in an unsettling “black Nikes waiting for the comet” kind of way (at least, when...
