...handles all major student disciplinary and academic problems, next had to determine an appropriate disciplinary response. Its one precedent was the obstruction of Defense Secretary McNamara the year before, and in that case no one was punished. John U.

Monro told the Faculty that another such protest would be handled severely, but he failed to communicate this message to most students...
...standing Committee on History and Literature is an example of the first type; the standing Committee on Houses is an example of the second.

And right near by sat a green and cream Sopwith Camel-the type that downed the Red Baron-with a cutout figure of that daredevil, Snoopy, as the Baron's fearless foe, everyone surely knows. The occasion: an auction of 29 veteran and vintage planes, from a tricycle-wheeled 1910 Parker Curtiss Pusher to such recent classics as World War II fighters...
Nothing about the exhibit seems to fit among the musty antiquities of Assyrian Hall in the University of Chicago's Oriental Institute. Eye-popping red, blue and yellow paints are splashed inside the glass showcases; a lettered wheel whirls out breezy explanations in art nouveau type. Topping off the extravaganza is a large wall map, lit up by flickering red neon tubing. It is the kind of show that conservative diggers dismiss with a scornful epithet: "Pop Archaeology...
