...fact remains that there are enough sexist women here to render the phrase "Radcliffe community" totally meaningless. Instead, there are clumps of women dispersed among and dominated by a male edifice. And as long as Radcliffe women remain fragmented, as long as they do not stand together on the issue of women's rights at Harvard, much less care about them. Harvard will remain a male-dominated institution unhealthy for girls growing into women...
...been said that no man is better than his worst ideas. And B.F. Skinner has come up with some real lulus, or so his critics (and they're abundant) claim. They are adjectives like "evil", "fantastic" and "dangerous" when describing him. Their machine gun attacks would probably render most men impotent. They say that his psychology is "vacuous," "unscientific," "irresponsible," "without a psyche" and that it "necessitates an atrophy of consciousness." And many of them are distinguished figures: Noam Chomsky, Thomas Szasz, Rollo May, Carl Rogers and Stephen Spender--to name...

A hint of Gilbert and Sullivan enters the playgoer's mind and lightens what should essentially be a dark comedy. Leaving that aside, the redcoats have...
...sharp focus and modern subject matter. Their approach was formal, carefully--considered, composed and crafted. This style reached its peak in the 40's with the work of Edward Weston. Weston photographed mainly nudes, still lifes and landscapes, emphasizing the photograph's wide, tonal scale and capacity to render diamond-sharp details...
