...joint Faculty of Arts and Sciences--Graduate School of Design professorship in landscape history: "If you don't know what has happened in the past in our society, whether it is in agriculture, in the growth of cities, or in the use of the land, you are going to repeat the mistakes of the past . . . And what I really got out of Harvard was a love of learning about all types of things. It has meant a lot to me over the years in terms of friendships, intellectual stimulation, and the joy of learning something other than what I needed...
Home Front was first staged last June in London, starring Sternhagen and under the direction of Michael Attenborough. Both repeat their roles in the excellent Broadway production that opened last week. One might expect O'Connor (as a milder Archie Bunker) or Fields (in a part that cries out for an actor with the implosive intensity of a Sean Penn) to commandeer the spotlight.

Seizing his chance, Schroeder told the President, "I've got a Social Security problem." Reagan asked Schroeder to repeat himself. "O.K.," said the patient. "I filed March of 1984 for Social Security, and I'm just getting a runaround. I'm not getting anything at all." Promised the President: "I'll get on it right away." Two Social Security officials appeared at Schroeder's bedside the next...
...maintaining its investment policy. It recalls that southern hypocrisy of a generation ago, not Harvard's "pursuit of truth." The premise that pursuit of truth indeed leads to justice is one of the foundations of Western civilization, however often ignored or given only lip service. Is it necessary to repeat former South African Prime Minister Verster's statement that "each trade agreement, each bank loan, each new investment is another brick in the wall of our continued existence?" Or Tutu's "Either you are for or against apartheid, and not by rhetoric...
