...think RUS feels a little threatened by the proposal," Dowling says--but some students disagree. Ross Boylan '81-4, a vocal critic of the Dowling Report and a member of the Constitutional committee, feels that the Dowling Committee simply ignored women's and minority concerns, which he feels must be addressed. "The Dowling Committee made a big mistake by not involving RUS and minority groups in its discussions," he says...
...simple thing out of the way: Tattoo you is a fine album, stuffed with rambunctious guitar licks and some of Jagger's best vocal work in recent memory. One cut, "Worried About You," is a legitimate hit, even by Rolling Stones standards, and along with several other songs, it provides a powerful reminder of how pure and how sweet the simplicity of real rock and roll can be. Yet there is certainly little innovation on this record, and over that the skeptics will gloat. Once again the faithful will search desperately, as they have for much of the past decade...
...Chancellor's latest burst of anxiety was caused by Reagan's announcement last month that the U.S. would begin to produce the neutron bomb, a weapon opposed by the vocal pacifist left wing of Schmidt's Social Democratic Party (S.P.D.).

The Environmental Defense Fund, a legal action group, announced last week that it will sue Watt for delaying the addition of 44 species, most of them Hawaiian snails, to the endangered species list.

And Friends of the Earth, an environmental advocacy group, has sold 1,200 DUMP WATT T shirts (some of them to Interior Department employees) at up to $7.50 apiece...
...with Tenor José Carreras, all conducted by Herbert von Karajan-as well as from films of Bohème and Butterfly shown here in 1965 and 1976. She captivated audiences at her U.S. debut as Mimi at the Metropolitan Opera in 1965 with her technical accomplishment and winsome vocal timbre. But Freni's talent still far outshines her American reputation. Her career has been primarily European: between 1968 and 1976 she did not sing in the U.S. at all. True, there were what she describes as "minor tax problems" with the Internal Revenue Service in 1966, but they...
