Yale Daily News column, 10/18/07: awkwardness, ritual and traditionalism.

Don't freak out: the headline they stuck on it was even more trad than the piece itself. Besides, is it really traditionalist to admit that political correctness would be okay if it were just carried to a slightly reconceived (and more-or-less depoliticized) conclusion?

(Helpful background: Tory Marshman on ANTM; YDN scene fails to have anything interesting to say about ritual.)

ETA: Okay, so I found the YDN scene pieces to be completely devoid of information, but apparently the one on a cappella was still too dangerous and got removed from the website. Yikes.
