...alumni who have been "quite unabashed, wholly unashamed of their high purpose." He urged his audience to affirm five propositions that give the lie to the cynic: "We know that happiness is more than material wellbeing, that conscience is more than simple fear, that love is more than sex, that moral authority is more than political power, and that community is more than organization." As for himself, Brewster added, he will continue to draw on what is perhaps the most important capacity a college president can have: an abundant reservoir of wishful thinking...
Hopper's frankly commercial use of rock gives us one more insight into his real sensibility. Easy Rider may be a happy vision, but it's a bourgeois happy vision, concocted with both eyes on the market place. Just listen to how Hopper treated sex, and why: "I knew that Peter and I and the girls we meet would never be seen totally nude in the nude swimming scene, because I wanted to show the over-forty crowd that it is possible to play like innocent children in the nude without getting into sex."

Moreover, it would be an unjustified invasion of privacy "in matters related to marriage, family and sex." Efforts to reinterpret the statute, Peters said, had only muddied it with elusive psychological considerations. For example, one California appeals court recently upheld a doctor who had performed an abortion on a woman who psychiatrists said might commit suicide if she did not have one. Thus the law did not clearly...
