As the students of Brandeis return to campus in unseasonably warm weather for the start of another semester, the assorted undergraduate theatre groups are gearing up for their spring seasons. So, what can audiences expect to see grace Brandeiss all-undergrad stages this semester? How does murder, mayhem, warped fairly tales, English Renaissance drama, a North American premiere, a rap musical, and more sound?
When is the last time you read a book? Probably last semester. When is the last time you read a book for pleasure? Probably in third grade, R.L. Stines Goosebumps. But one group of Brandeis students reads for pleasure and gets their work done. Well, sometimes…

Apparently a considerable number of faculty and students are under the impression that the Palestinian message has been silenced or muted at Brandeis and have longed to bring that message vividly to the attention of the community. I suppose the invitation to and the forthcoming appearance of President Carter will help to satisfy that desire, although I would think serious advocates of the Palestinian cause must know that there are much better advocates of their views than he.
After weeks of organizing and a signed petition by over one hundred members of a joint student-faculty committee, former President Jimmy Carter has agreed to speak and answer questions regarding his controversial book Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid. The speech will occur Jan. 23 in the Gosman Gymnasium, and will be open only for members of the Brandeis community.
