  4. As kids head to college, beware liberal groupthink

    I've been thinking a lot about college lately. You see, one of my more time-consuming tasks is to write college recommendation letters.

  6. Sam Zell's wife donates $50 million to Michigan creative writing

    In my book, donating money to support creative writing programs is generally a good thing. But I'm -- hmm, let's call it conflicted -- over a $50-million donation to the University of Michigan's MFA program in creative writing from Helen Zell, wife of Sam Zell.

  9. A hint that affirmative action may survive

    All but eclipsed by the speculation about how the Supreme Court will rule on same-sex marriage is the fact that the court will also hand down a decision in the next few months about the constitutionality of affirmative action at state universities.  But even if the court rules that the University of Texas went too far in seeking to assemble a racially diverse class, that may not mean the end of racial preferences.
