What in the World is Wrong with the Times?
December 2, 2005 – 1:30 pm
World magazine notices the same New York Times article I pointed out earlier, and Joel Belz also wonders what the author had in mind:
The problem is that Mr. Vinciguerra is artfully ambiguous and doesn’t quite come clean with his readers. At first blush, any of three radically different possibilities might be in play:
1. Mr. Vinciguerra [...]
Here’s the Problem with the Times
November 26, 2005 – 11:52 pm
In tomorrow’s New York Times, there’s an exposé of sorts of the dangerous high school curricula published by Bob Jones University, my alma mater. The occasion is a lawsuit against the University of California that’s been meandering into the national news over the last few weeks. The plaintiffs accuse the UC admissions officials [...]

I think my freshman class had about 1500-2000 members, and I remember about [...]
John Roberts Interviewed about Bob Jones University
September 14, 2005 – 6:00 pm
DURBIN: But there was one case, one case in particular that hasn’t been mentioned today that I’d like to ask you about, and that was the case involving Bob Jones University.
That was one of the most troubling decisions of the Reagan administration. It was a decision to argue before the Supreme Court that Bob Jones [...]
Robert-Jones Commentary Again
September 12, 2005 – 8:43 am
As John Roberts’ hearings are about to start, his memo telling Bob Jones, president of Bob Jones University to “go soak his head,” comes up again as an example of Roberts’ impenetrability:
There is something for everyone here. It can be read variously as 1) the nominee was happy to work for an administration that curried [...]
