...another time, a resolution was introduced to wish all students at Harvard a Merry Christmas. This bill was remarkable both because it was utterly useless as well as being offensive: Not all of us celebrate Christmas. As president, I strive to focus the council on issues that I feel the student body wants to see addressed. This will include, especially, taking a leadership role this semester with Faculty diversity efforts. But I am limited, too, in my ability to represent all groups.

Says Wu-Tang member RZA: "The way we looked at it is, we came from hell, and we're on the way to heaven--and you're hearing that transformation." Also, gangsta attitude isn't the only thing that sells: the recent chart success of such Christian acts as God's Property and Bob Carlisle demonstrates that religiously oriented inspirational pop has a market...
