...other places are the field and into the laboratory. Many trace the demise of teaching and the displacement of faculty instruction by graduate student teaching to the "Plush Sixties" when millions of dollars in government funds became available for basic research. Whether the preference for conducting research was motivated by need to establish grounds for tenure or desire to do work in one's own specialty, scholars were offered the resources to indulge themselves...
...year investigation by Journalists Marc Hillel, 46, a French Jew, and his wife Clarissa Henry, 36, a French citizen of English Protestant parentage. In a 400-page book on Le-bensborn to be published in France in January and in a stark, 2½%-hour documentary film, the Hillels trace the pro gram's grotesque course. They show that Himmler had become obsessed with the idea of "racial war" and told Lebensborn directors that he wanted "racially acceptable" children in occupied lands brought to the Fatherland to be raised as Germans. "How can we be so cruel...
...traditional bread-and-butter liberal, he is taking cautious stands against taxes and busing and a moderate environmentalist position. He promises to block President Ford's surtax proposal from his post on the House Ways and Means Committee.

His music is elegantly eclectic, running from Leadbelly and Sleepy John Estes blues numbers through main-line ballads of the 1940s to reggae and rock 'n' roll. "Ry's pure...
...only things missing at the Lou Reed concert this past Friday night, surprisingly enough, was glitter. In fact, the sole trace manifested itself in three heavily made-up girls clothed in black, one of whom my brother mistook for a distaff Lou Reed. Prior to the concert, I envisioned the normally lackluster interior of the Orpheum illuminated by a gilded aura; an aura emanating from the regal attire of an audience which was jaded by overtones of bi- and even transsexuality. I had almost hoped for a Cinderella-like transformation of the Orpheum into an aggrandizement of Reed's virtual...
