...difficult to imagine Congress moving to impeach a wildly popular President with nothing more than tantalizing but indirect facts. Which is why Starr has set his sights on two eyewitnesses whose testimony could seal the case. One of them, a key source tells TIME, is a Secret Service agent who has told colleagues he saw Clinton and Lewinsky in a compromising situation. The existence of this agent was first reported in January by the Dallas Morning News, but the paper retracted the story after its primary source recanted. The TIME source says Starr has reason to believe that the story...

...advisers in matters of national security or "legitimate public interest." Executive privilege has always been a murky point of law--it is implied, not specified, in the Constitution--but it became downright sinister during Watergate when Richard Nixon invoked it in an attempt to block release of his secret Oval Office tapes. Ever since, Executive privilege has been associated with Executive cover-up, which tends to overlook the legitimate argument that a President has a right to unfettered advice. But prosecutors and Congress have countervailing rights, and to prevail in a privilege claim, a President must show that...

...location, you moan, we're marooned! Here's secret number two: the location is not a problem. In fact, its inconvenience is ridiculously exaggerated. The shuttles come so often that the schedule-savvy Quadling, if he or she so chooses, can actually walk a great deal less than your average river rat. Sure, there are down times (usually in the mid afternoon), and in the morning or around lunchtime those red and white buses can get pretty crowded. But the shuttle service, ever sensitive to student suggestion, has improved steadily over the past three years, to the point that there...

...seems as though a refined version of Harvard is being marketed. There are three possibilities. First, a secret administrative unit deep inside Mass. Hall keeps track of tour guides. Special privileges, like one hour of homework a night and personal advisors, are bestowed upon tour guides without their knowledge. In turn, these over-eager Harvard students share the only Harvard they know. Second, the same people who teach O.C.S.'s resume workshop write the tour script. Third, I'm just bitter over my financial aid package. Whatever the case, I suggest you take a tour and find...

...editors. Let us just sit back and enjoy our beautiful home. If the rest of campus wants to look at the Quad in disdain, let it. There is a certain power in this situation; we know certain things that others are unaware of. Let's just keep it a secret. Let's keep the outdoor movie showings sponsored by all three Quad house committees to ourselves. Let's keep the Quad Carnival, with the free beer and food, carnival rides and music, in the family. There's no need to force it down their throats--if they don't want...
