...definite vision for the U.C…. He criticizes the council as a whole if they don't have the same vision, and that can alienate people sometimes," says Alexander A. Boni-Saenz '01, a fellow Eliot House council member. "He is a person with strong viewpoints. He will express those viewpoints in any context--not just when it's the best way to unite people and get things done...
...regardless of which name students support on their president and vice-presidential ballot, the chances of true council progress are dim. This year's candidates have failed miserably at galvanizing, informing or interesting the student body. None of the candidates has offered a cohesive vision of council reform.

Then it magically floats up on a shaft of light and joins the rest of the pod. Together they all soar, through clouds, until with a great splash they come...
...page, ghostwritten draft of the text, which focuses on race in America, sits stuck in his In box. The topic is one that Clinton cares deeply about and is supremely qualified to examine. Tentatively titled Out of Many, One, the book aims to offer the President's personal vision of future racial and economic justice, and a kind of work plan on how to get there. "The good news is, he really cares enough about it to want to own it," says one of the ghostwriters, Harvard professor Christopher Edley Jr. But that, he adds, is also "the bad news...
