...effect, channel 7 has told the viewers, "the only difference between our news operation and channel 5's is John Henning. Since we've hired him, its time for you to switch to us." Clearly, the viewers weren't convinced. They didn't flock to channel 7 either a few months, when it lured two attractive young anchors, Brad Holbrook and Susan Brady, from Nevada and Buffalo respectively...
Alan A. Khazei '83 agrees and his own switch from involvement in student government during freshman year to a commitment to Currier house committee, of which he is now chairman, is typical of the kind of involvement which more students apparently find satisfying. Some, in fact, point to the network of House committees as the de facto student government here, making the decisions which directly affect undergraduate life in small but noticeable ways.

Wherever he happens to be, King compulsively churns out 1,500 words a day, just...
...despite their differences in age and sex, a kindred eccentricity of spirit. He is a very clean old man (especially as portrayed by the innocent-eyed Hector Alterio), and it is she who lures him on into an affair that is chaste sexually, utterly enthralling emotionally. The switch-it is the child who entraps, the adult who is victimized-is full of delicious irony. But it is with dark deftness that Writer-Director Arminan has Goyita increase her demands on Alejandro until she brings him to destruction, herself to an awareness of female power.
