...very, very noticeable relationship between size of department and student contentment. Departments like Geology and Astronomy, for example, are very, very well thought of by the undergraduate majors. Then you measure that against English, Economics, Government, History and so on, the warhorse fields...You finally have a very, very uneven balance which can't be totally rectified by having somewhat larger staffs in the more popular department...
...frustrating incoherence marred both Ann diFruscia's "Prisma" and Elizabeth S.-Wilkerson's "When the Street Lights Come On," accenting the uneven choreography of the company. In "Prisma," large wooden angles and U-shapes hung at the back of the stage, suggesting the organizing principle of the choreography. At its best, the dance was forthright and geometric, firmly asserted on the ground and in space as a series of poses blocked and held.

...next bout Debbie Sze clinched the Crimson victory by lacerating Virginia Penhune 5-2. But, despite the uneven final score and Penhune's repeated attempts to trip over her own feet, this bout was far from easy for Sze, who began by losing two quick points. Down 2-0, Sze then regained her composure and came back with two straight-in attacks and three quick loops around Penhune's attempted parries for touches...
