The policy is a DRAG!

In the wake of last issue's cover story concerning Yeshiva University's policy of denying housing to homosexual couples, I deemed it necessary to do my part as a Commentator culture critic to reexamine YU's artistic policies that may have homophobic origins.

Book Review: Explaining Hitler

Thirty years after the results of the Russian autopsy of Adolf Hitler's scorched corpse were released, there is still a feeling that Hitler has escaped: that he has eluded explanation. In a new book by Ron Rosenbaum, Explaining Hitler, ( Random House, 1998. 444 pages; $30.) we are drawn into the world of countless theories and conjectures of what drove Hitler's pursuit for the total annihilation of the Jewish people. Rosenbaum, a writer who has been praised as "one of the few distinctive voices of modern American literary journalism," takes us from Vienna and Munich to London, Paris, and Jerusalem, and from Hitler's home-town in Austria to the bunker that served as his grave, in an excruciatingly detailed journey into the attempts to fathom Hitler's imprint on human history.
