The article presents information related to the U.S. practical politics. The largest protests in Cornell University's history, against apartheid, drew no attention from the national press at the time they took place, back in April of last year. A year later one divestment advocate at Cornell threw a pie at president Frank Rhodes and persons unknown smashed windows in Rhodes's house and in the office of the dean of students. As a general rule Len Kaminsky, administrator of the Haitian Refugee Center in Miami, approaches the daily "New York Times," crossword puzzle with keen enjoyment.
