The editor reserves the right toshorten letters.REACTIONS TODIVESTMENT POSITIONEditor:In a letter published in the Summer issue, Robert S. Forrest advocates the divestment by the University of stocks of corporations that do business in South Africa. Theobjective of those who advocate such actionis the destabilization of the South Africangovernment. Destabilization appears to bethe goal of a relatively high proportion ofthe American press and certainly is the goalof the Soviet Union. Success in that effortwould mean industrial and military disaster to the United States.I wish someone would explain to mewhy people are so incensed because 1,600—1,800 blacks have been killed in South Africa, mainly by government forces trying toquell riots, but there is little concern aboutthe hundreds of thousands of Afghanskilled by the Soviet invaders. People are notdisturbed because the Soviets blow thehands off of little Afghan children.No one ever mentions the seven millionUkrainian men, women, and children whounderwent an agonizing death by starvation in the early 1930s on Stalin's orders.As Professor Rummel's analysis in TheWall Street Journal for July 7, 1986, shows,communist governments have killed almost three times as many people as havedied in all the wars of this century. The communists have made the 20th century thebloodiest of all centuries.Bruce A. Rogers, SM'20Tempe, AZ 85281Editor:President Gray warns us not to politicize universities by demanding that they divest themselves of their stock holdings incorporations that do business in South Africa. Let us charitably assume that her viewsas reported in the Magazine are an abbreviation of some more thoughtful position. Itstill seems naive, even willfully naive, notto recognize that universities are powerfulinstitutions that are tightly bound, as we allare, within the political system we all inhabit. This is true a fortiori of the Universityof Chicago, as a relatively wealthy and particularly influential university. Divestmentwould indeed be a political act; the decisionnot to divest is equally a political act, and awrongheaded one.President Gray adduces the compliance of the German universities with the Nazi regime as a warning of what may happenwhen universities are politicized. I wouldsuggest that Hitler's genius, such as it was,lay precisely in his recognition that everything and everyone functioning within apolitical society has a political aspect whichcan be exploited. The tragedy of the German universities was not that they failed toavoid politics, which would clearly havebeen impossible for them (and remains sofor us); but rather that they failed to embrace any political alternative.I wonder whether any of my fellowalumni believe, as I do, that we should divest ourselves, as long as this policy is in effect, of any intention of contributing to theUniversity. I suspect that I know what theUniversity response would be: "Do not politicize the University. But please, ohplease, do not politicize the Alumni Fund. "Martin Lubin, AB'68Jackson Heights, NYEditor:Re:President Gray and the question ofdisinvestment in the murderously racistUnion of South Africa.She says, "Do not politicize universities."With all respect to Mrs. Gray, would shehave said the same about disinvestment inNazi Germany, say, after Kristallnacht?About abolition before the Civil War? Is disinvestment in South Africa politics or morals'!When Bob Hutchins appeared before agroup which accused our University of being "subversive," he said, "It is the functionof a university to be subversive." He wastalking about seeking truth above all thingswhich requires, apparently, more moralstrength and leadership than we presentlyenjoy at our top levels of administration.Gerald C. F.Allen, X'51Milwaukee, WIEditor:In the most recent issue of the Magazine,I have read of the Faculty Senate voteagainst a resolution calling for the University to divest itself of holdings in companieswith investments in South Africa. I herebyregister my deepest personal disappointment with this outcome. One infers withprofound regret economic considerationsof returns and profitability appear to carrygreater weight than issues of human decency, justice, and high moral purpose.In my view, the Afrikaaner governmentof the Union of South Africa is the modernequivalent of the government of the ThirdReich under Adolph Hitler. For a great uni versity to appear to react to such an evilgovernment based on considerations of returns to investments reduces to a level ofcynicism and farce what that universitystands for. It contravenes the basic philosophy of the humane commitment of thiscountry to those inalienable rights of all human beings enunciated so eloquently in theAmerican Declaration of Independence andthe Constitution whose bicentenary we observe in 1989./ am deeply disappointed in the action of theUniversity of Chicago in this matter. TheReagan Administration's policy of "constructive engagement" has failed to achieveits stated objectives. The vote of the FacultySenate constitutes ratification of that failednational policy.Joseph Hasson, MBA'47, AM'50, PhD'51Rockville, MDEditor:In his letter appearing in the Summerissue, Robert S. Forrest is "dismayed" thatthe president and trustees of the Universitydecided against South African disinvestment. The chanting of divestment slogansby mobs in front of embassies and in thestreets is perhaps excusable on the basisof congenital economic ignorance, but ismuch less understandable from one who atleast had the requisite intellectual attainments to gain entry to the University.It should be obvious that if a block ofstock is sold someone else buys it. (I assumethat Mr. Forrest does not recommend thesymbolic burning of the stock certificates bythe trustees.) So "divestment" makes nopalpable difference to the corporation involved, the dividend checks are simply sentto other stockholders than the Universityfund. Certainly, South African natives haveno great gain from such symbolic nonsense,since I would assume few of them carry listsof U.S. corporate stockholders in theirlunch pails.Much of the current pother about therole of Americans in the South African crisis derives from the ululations of BishopTutu, a cleric whose domestic flock is probably smaller than the Diocese of Medford,Oregon. Almost entirely ignored are thestrong opinions against American disinvestment by the chief of the Zulu tribe, whosemembers number in the many millions, andwho speaks for the largest black groupsouth of the Zambesi River.President Gray and the trustees are to becommended for standing against the shrilland mindless mobs who have forced the fiduciary authorities in other universities to makeContinued on page 30EditorFelicia Antonelli Holton, AB'50Class News EditorKim ShivelyDesignerTom GreensfelderThe University of Chicago Office ofAlumni RelationsRobie House5757 South Woodlawn AvenueChicago, Illinois 60637Telephone: (312) 753-2175President, The University of ChicagoAlumni AssociationMichael Klowden, AB'67Executive Directorof University Alumni RelationsCarol Jenkins Linne, AB'66Associate Directorof University Alumni RelationsRuth HalloranNational Program DirectorBette ArnettChicago Area Program DirectorCrista Cabe, AM'83Director, Alumni Schools CommitteeJ.

Something interesting has been happening to the maps of the MiddleEast. Find a map of the Middle East made a fewyears ago and chances are greater than not that atthe center of the map was the State of Israel. TheState of Israel was at the center because the Arab-Israeli conflict was our dominant concern in theMiddle East. For most Americans, the Middle East meant that conflict.Our concern with the region meant a concern with that series of wars.We got maps reflecting our concerns.Two factors have occurred in the last few years to change ourfocus— the Iran-Iraq War and the rapidly rising price of oil. Both are related. Both have riveted our attention on the Persian Gulf. The newmaps of the Middle East show the State of Israel somewhere on thewestern edge of the region. The Persian Gulf is at their center. The conflict between Israel and its Arab neighbors has receded in importance:in our maps, in the concerns of most Americans, in the focus of American diplomats, and even in the planning of the Pentagon. The significance of that conflict has been transcended by the Persian Gulf.Many recent historical events have propelled the Persian Gulf toour attention. The overthrow of the Shah of Iran, the Iran-Iraq War,and the price of oil have been most crucial. The three of them are not independent events. They are interrelated facts whose consequences forthe West, and the United States in particular, have been profound. Theoverthrow of the Shah in early 1979 was the culmination of the yearlong revolution which swept the Iranian people. Iranians demandedthe ouster of the Shah, his family, and the entire system of Pahlavi rule.That system of rule had been first created by the father who had founded the Pahlavi dynasty in 1925, and then refined by the son after he assumed the throne in 1941.The Iranian people were not clear about what they hoped would replace the Shah. But the words used to describe political ideologies andforms of government are sufficiently vague so that a consensus wasMarvin Zonis, associate professor in the Department of Behavioral Sciences, ischairman of the Committee on Human Development.

Whatemerged was thereactionary, authoritarianpolitical regime with whichwe have become all toofamiliar— holy fascism, ithas been called. built around general goals. The Iranianpeople never had to face the arduoustask of defining their revolutionarygoals with any more precision than"Down with the Shah" early on in therevolution, and then as it built, "Deathto the Shah." Those slogans, alongwith "Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity" served to mobilize the people andprovide a sufficient rationale for themto explain what they were up to, bothto themselves as well as to foreignerswho bothered to inquire.When the Shah and his family madetheir last trip from Iran, there was a shortperiod when the Iranian people had theopportunity to catch their breaths andtheir wits. But the period was too shortto allow the emergence of reason. Instead, Ayatollah Rouhollah Khomeini,the radical, anti-American Shi'ite fundamentalist cleric, returned to Iran following his fifteen years of exile in Iraq.Khomeini' s return radicalized the political debate and split the coalition whichhad succeeded in ousting the Shah.What emerged was the reactionary, authoritarian political regime with whichwe have become all too familiar— holyfascism, it has been called.NEOFTHECONSE-quences of the fallof the Shah was theinterruption of Iranian oil productionand the virtual ending of oil exports.Some five million barrels of oil per daywere removed from world markets.The immediate result was the secondgreat oil spike of the 1970s. Pricesmoved inexorably upward. They hadbeen at the $15 per barrel range following the first OPEC hike after the "October War" of 1973. After the fall of theShah they moved to as high as $42 perbarrel on the spot market. They droppedoff that peak, but were to hover at $30 perbarrel until the end of 1985.The third great event which movedthe Persian Gulf to the center of ourmaps was the Iran-Iraq War. In late1979 and early 1980, President SaddamHussein of Iraq concluded that theShi'ite fundamentalism gripping themajority of the population of Iraq wasemanating from Iran. The majority of the Iraqi population is Shi'ite, and always in stark contrast to the presidentand his ruling cronies who are fromIraq's minority Sunnis. It was not justthat the Shi'ites of Iraq had been inspired by the success of their Iraniancounterparts. Rather, Hussein saw thedirect hand of the Ayatollah and a concerted effort by the Iranian clerics toexport their revolution to their neighbor. When terrorism against the members of his regime began in earnest in1980, Hussein was convinced that theIranians were attempting to exporttheir revolution through violence.It was about this time that theIranian exiles and the Iraqi intelligenceagencies began to bring the same message to President Hussein. They argued that the Iranian military was being progressively dismantled by thefundamentalists in Iran. In the eyes ofthe fundamentalist clerics, the Iranianmilitary were agents of the Americanconspiracy. All its senior officers hadbeen trained in the U.S. and, at onetime or another, virtually all of themhad been guests of the Israeli military.At the same time, Hussein heard thatthe population of Teheran was turningagainst the radicalism of the clergywho were imposing their narrow vision of an Islamic Republic on a revolutionary coalition who thought theywould get a very different system byousting the Shah. Finally, Hussein wastold that the Arabs who constituted amajority of Iran's southwestern province of Khuzestan, the province inwhich almost all of Iran's oil industrywas located, would rise in support oftheir fellow Arabs of Iraq if the grip ofTeheran was relaxed.The temptation proved irresistableto Saddam Hussein. He decided to invade Iran hoping to achieve lightningsuccess. At the least, he assumed hecould detach Khuzestan from Iran andimpoverish his neighbor while enhancing his own power to levels greater thaneven Saudi Arabia. With more luck, hecould succeed in overthrowing the clerics in Teheran, eliminating the terrorismagainst his own rule, and establishinga new regime in Iran which would begrateful for his intervention. Saddam'sdecision was a disastrous miscalculationof historic proportions.The Arabs of Khuzestan remainedloyal to Iran. The enemies of the clericsin Teheran rallied to their regime—however much they detested its archa-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986ic ruthlessness. The army regroupedand a new generation of officers, alsoeducated in the U.S., took charge. Theregime was able to create new fightingforces— the Revolutionary Guards wereby far the most important— to race tothe battlefield and work alongside andsometimes in front of the army to confront the Iraqi invaders. In short, nationalism proved to be a powerful force,overriding whatever objections the people of Iran had to the evolution of theirrevolutionary government.AS A RESULT, THEIraqis quickly boggeddown. Their advanceinto Iran stalled. In1981 the Iranians wereable to go on the offensive . By the springof 1982 they had succeeded in repellingthe invaders and restoring the statusquo ante. But not quite. The invasionmobilized the ruthless determination ofAyatollah Khomeini— hatred would notbe too strong a word. What he had visti-ted upon the Shah of Iran he now directed at Saddam Hussein.Khomeini always had reason todisdain the Iraqi president. The Ayatollah had lived in exile in Iraq from 1965until 1978. He had the opportunity towitness at first hand the oppressiveness of Saddam's regime and the control which Saddam exercised over thelives of Iraqi Shi'ites. But the disdainturned to bitterness in September1978. In that month the Shah of Iranreached the conclusion that the revolution against his throne was succeedingand that the principal reason was theleadership of Ayatollah Khomeini. Toreduce the power of that leadership,the Shah had his prime minister callPresident Hussein and ask him eitherto place the Ayatollah under house arrest or expel him from Iraq.President Hussein was pleased tooblige. Thus it was that in the monthsimmediately preceding the success ofthe revolution, the Ayatollah was living at Neuphe le Chateau, outsideParis. Actually, the decision was toprove to be yet another grave error bythe Shah. In fact, the communicationsbetween Neuphe le Chateau andTeheran were far superior to those be tween the Iraqi holy city of Najaf andTeheran. Because of the direct dial telephone service between France andIran, the Ayatollah was able to exercisefar more significant leadership overthe course of the revolution, eventhough he was far more distant fromthe scene of the uprising. Nonetheless,the Ayatollah was never to forget thecomplicity of Saddam in the efforts ofthe Shah to retain his throne.After the Iraqi invasion of September 1980, the bitterness of the Ayatollahturned to hatred. He vowed that thewar would not end until SaddamHussein had been removed from power. Thus it is that after six years offighting, and four-and-a-half yearsafter the ouster of the invaders fromthe territory of Iran, the war rages on.The casualties on both sides have beenimmense. Iran alone has lost more than500,000 dead. Iraq has lost more-proportional to the size of its far smaller population. The physical damagehas been incalculable. The world'slargest oil refinery at Abadan and theworld's largest oil loading facility atKharg, in Iran, both have been guttedby Iraqi assault. Hundreds of factorieshave been destroyed from artillery attack and bombs. Whole towns and villages have been levelled. Millions ofpeople have been made refugees.THE WAR WILL CON-tinue until the Ayatollahrealizes his dream andousts the Iraqi. Or, theAyatollah may die, orlose power through debilitating illness,before the achievement of that goal— inwhich case his successors are likely tonegotiate a peace. All indications arethat the political leaders immediately below the Ayatollah— the radical Shi'iteclergy who were swept to positions ofprominence by his charismatic appeal-have concluded that the continued pursuit of the war is wreaking havoc in Iran.They do not fear for the longevity of therevolution. Rather, they fear for its success. The burden of the war is inflictinghardships on the Iranian people and precluding Iran's achieving the economicgains necessary to argue for the successContinued on page 29 The Iranians will pursuewar with more and not withless vigor. The result will begreat political turmoil andthe possibility of the spreadof Islamic fundamentalism.Those dangers— politicalturmoil, war, and theconsequences of a vigorousIslamic fundamentalism-entail major political risksfor the United States andthe West.Photographs hj James L Ballard(Tup) Bronze mirror, 14thor 15th Century Egyptian,with figure of woman ashandle.

Ancient Nubia, centered in what is now thenorthern Sudan, produced one of blackAfrica's highest cultures. For a while theNubians controlled Egypt, specifically during Dynasty 25, when King Pi ye conqueredEgypt. The Nubians and Egyptians alwaysinteracted closely and much of the Nubianreligion was based upon the Egyptian religion. There is growing evidence that in thepredynastic period Nubian kings wereconsidered Egyptian kings and that Nubiaand Egypt were one country. After 3000B.C., however, Nubia was quite distinctand served as an intermediary for tradegoods from Central Africa into Egypt.When the low dam at Aswan was beingraised, Nubia was going to be flooded; theEgyptians asked archeologists in severalcountries to excavate. The University ofChicago answered the call, and at a placecalled Qustul discovered the cemetery ota (previously unknown) predynastic kingdom in Nubia.

This was thefirst film Grosbarddirected, in 1968.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986From theMidway toBroadway? Stage and film directorUlu Grosbard, AB'50, AM' 52, winshigh marks with a low -profile.By Michael AlperUlu Grosbard, AB'50, AM'52, is a director whose films areshort on special effects, and whose plays are short on spectacle. While movie screens have been populated (if that's theword) by cuddly aliens and comic strip characters, and Broadway by vocalizing house pets and house plants, Grosbard hasspecialized in dramas about— of all things— people.Since directing his first Broadway production, FrankGilroy's Pulitzer Prize- winning drama, The Subject Was Roses, in1964, Grosbard has been one of the most respected directors inthe business. His output has been modest— only five featurefilms and fewer than a dozen plays on and off Broadway—because he has avoided projects that he didn't believe wereworth doing and doing well.In an industry rife with sequels and imitations, he is admired by his peers for his commitment to original projectsthat would seem doomed to failure or at best to a respectablebut unprofitable oblivion. With plays like The Subject Was Roses, Arthur Miller's The Price, and David Mamet's American Buffalo, and with films like True Confessions, he has shown that ascript can be talky and still be riveting and entertainingenough to draw audiences.In a field of oversized egos, Grosbard also stands out by notovershadowing his scripts or upstaging his actors.He has often been called an "actor's director, " but he denies that he has any special gift for inspiring great performances."I've just been lucky enough," he insists with customaryself -deprecation, "to have worked with excellent actors."By the same token, he attributes the strength of his productions to the strength of their scripts. His job, as he sees it,Michael Alper, AB'80, AM' 83, is a free-lance writer.is to interpret, to "make the arc of thestory clear ... to go for what is there. "Though known for his work withhigh-powered stars, Grosbard himselfis as low-key as can be. He speaks earnestly but agreeably with the measured, slightly clipped cadence of onewhose first language was not English.Dressed in cowboy boots, jeans, and achecked shirt, he is a picture of understated professionalism.When not actually involved in aproduction, he works out of a small,nondescript office off Manhattan'stheater row. Work, in this case, consistsof sifting through reams of scripts andpotential screenplay materials.He sifts a lot. He attributes hissmall output to a dearth of goodscripts, rather than to financial restraints or uncooperative producers."I have not had the experience of being prevented from doing a play that Iwanted to do because of lack of financing," he explains. "Certainly I think thepressures of the costs in the theater havemade doing a serious play, a drama onBroadway, much more difficult. On theother hand, I don't know of any reallygood new play that's unproduced because it's uncommercial. "The pressures of profit and loss aregreater in filmmaking, where the mostdangerous pitfall, he says, is the temptation to violate "the true meaning ofthe story" in an effort to win largeraudiences."In film, anyone who has the power to can tamper with the script, tamper with the story, and it's not uncommon that a story will be bent to what isregarded as being more commercialthan the true grain of the story. But itnever seems to accomplish its purpose. It's almost always a prescriptionfor disaster."Grosbard has avoided that disasterby staying true to his instincts— a luxury he has earned by having continuallyproven his instincts right."I've gone for long stretches oftime not jumping into anything andnot being as active as I would haveliked to have been. But there alwaysseemed to be a choice between directing something that I wasn't that crazyabout, or not working, or devoting thattime to looking for something I wouldbe crazy about."Down-to-earth as he is, Grosbardis naturally drawn to dramas of the realworld. During his career he has usually10 been interested in scripts centering onordinary people, focusing especiallyon family conflicts.This concern with the domestic is atheme that links an otherwise disparatelist of credits. Grosbard has brought hishumanistic touch to bear on ArthurMiller's neo-Sophoclean Freudianism,Frank Gilroy's kitchen-sink naturalism,Woody Allen's neurotic whimsy, andDavid Mamet's uncategorizable pyrotechnics. He approaches them all withthe same basic interest in exploring thesprings of human behavior, "of howpeople behave in a crisis situation. ""It was something in my own personal experience that awoke that interest in me," says Grosbard. His familyendured the crisis of being uprooted byWorld War II. He was born Israel (hepronounced it "Ulu" as a child)Grosbard in 1919, in Antwerp. His family fled Belgium during the war. Unableto enter the U.S. under the quota system, they "hung around Cuba for a fewyears, " he recalls.Finally in 1948, he and his familywere allowed to emigrate to the U.S.Lacking a formal high school education, he entered the College of the University of Chicago on the strength ofhis qualifying exams."One of the reasons I went therewas that I didn't have to have a highschool academic record. I had none."But as it turned out," he recalls,"it happened to be a wonderful placefor me . . . the perfect place for me, be- „cause its concerns were far more adult. '£u"There was a good deal of intellec- <tual ferment on campus. I think that 1what I loved about the University at the J=time was that whole neo-Thomist, neo- |Aristotelian approach, the emphasis con thinking, on being able to learn how Ito think, rather than just memorized 2knowledge. It was something that I gfound very stimulating and, I think, 1stood me in good stead." sHe completed his degree require- £ments in one year and stayed on to gethis master's degree in English with aminor in philosophy.Somewhere around this time hemade up his mind to become a stage director, deciding, he recalls, entirely onthe basis of "a hunch I had that it wassomething I might be good at. " He hadhad no theatrical experience. Neverone to take a hunch lightly, he took thisone to Yale University, where he enrolled in the renowned School of Dra ma, and received his master's degreein directing in 1953.In 1955, after serving two years inthe U.S. Army, he went to New YorkCity to direct. Even in the best of times,an untried theatrical director in NewYork doesn't get directing jobs, ormuch else, handed to him. On afriend's advice he opened the NewYork Yellow Pages and dialed his waythrough the listings of film productionUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986companies, offering them his services.He eventually landed a job at a stock-footage supply house. Later, he usedthe same sophisticated job search technique to land a job as a go-fer for a television production company. Over thenext two years, he moved up to a position as production manager on the television series Deadline.As one of a handful of highly qualified production managers in the New Actors Robert DeNiroand Meryl Streep withdirector Ulu Grosbard onthe set of the movie,Falling in Love.York feature film scene at the time,Grosbard was soon able to pick andchoose the projects he worked on. Hegot to work as an assistant to some ofAmerica's most accomplished and individualistic directors, including EliaKazan (on Splendor in the Grass in 1960),Robert Rossen (The Hustler, 1961),Arthur Penn (The Miracle Worker, 1962),and Sidney Lumet (The Pawnbroker,1965).Grosbard says he learned mostabout directing from having servedthis apprenticeship. Aside from the basic mechanics of putting a movie together, he learned how to run a movieset, and how to get the most from theother people involved in the production by inspiring an air of relaxation.Meanwhile, he kept up with hisstage career. In the summer of 1957, thedirector-producer of a summer stocktheater in Belleport, Long Island, needed a mid-season replacement. Grosbardtook the job, directing the full-lengthpremiere of Arthur Miller's A View Fromthe Bridge, about a New lersey longshoreman's destructive passion for his youngniece. Grosbard inherited his cast fromhis predecessor, but he had no cause forcomplaint; in the leading role was cast ayoung actor named Robert Duvall, withwhom Grosbard was to develop one ofhis most rewarding professional andpersonal friendships. Grosbard did getto cast one of the supporting roles,which he assigned to another aspiringactor, Gene Hackman, who was working with the company as a lighting technician.Grosbard's first off-Brodway production was a play by William Snyder,a friend from Yale, entitled The Days andNights of Beebee Fenstermaker, about ayoung woman who moves to New Yorkto become a writer. The play opened inSeptember, 1962, at the SheridanSquare Theater, and met with considerably more success than its haplessheroine. Robert Duvall, in a small roleas a visiting rube, captivated the critics,as did the "disarming" young actressin the title role, Rose Gregorio— withwhom Grosbard was also to forge a rewarding collaboration. They were married in 1965, and her performanceshave highlighted a number of his productions since then.With that well-regarded but relatively modest off-Broadway success tohis credit, it wasn't long beforeGrosbard was working on Broadway. His vehicle was Frank Gilroy's three-character domestic drama, The SubjectWas Roses, about a young World WarII veteran's strained homecoming tohis parents' Bronx apartment. Gilroy,the producer Edgar Lansbury, andGrosbard decided to circumvent theusual Broadway route. They openedthe play late in the season, with no big-name stars (Irene Dailey, Jack Albert-son, and Martin Sheen were all virtualunknowns), and with a budget of only$40,000.When the play opened, in late May,1964, it had advance ticket sales of only$162— a state of affairs that would ordinarily have spelled disaster for a majorproduction. One nervous investor offered Gilroy and Lansbury $160,000 toreschedule the opening and replace thecast and director, but they turned himdown. Instead, they bet him $2, at tento one odds, that the play wouldsucceed.They won the bet. Though ticketsales started off slowly, by its third weekthe play was selling enough tickets tobreak even, and before long it was a confirmed hit, helped along by glowing notices and enthusiastic word of mouth. Inthe New York Times, Howard Taubmanwrote: "Credit Mr. Grosbard's sensitive, unobstructive staging ... as well asMr. Gilroy for the dignity and warmthofthis modest, truthful play. " Time magazine respectfully struck an oft-to-be-repeated note, praising Grosbard's self-effacing methods, saying that his direction "belongs in the category of craft thatconceals craft."His craft was not so well concealedas to keep his directing talents secret.Before the year was out Grosbard wasat work on another off-Broadway production, for the second time stagingArthur Miller's A View From the Bridge,this time at the Sheridan Square Playhouse.Again Robert Duvall starred, withnewcomer Jon Voight also in the cast.This time the play received much widernotice. Taubman of the New York Timeswrote: "Ulu Grosbard . . . has contributed another tour de force of directionin the realistic manner. Under his guidance a fine cast makes you see and feeland almost smell the shabby Red Hookmilieu."In early 1968, Grosbard was back onBroadway directing the premiere of ThePrice, Arthur Miller's drama about the rivalry between two brothers (played by Arthur Kennedy and Pat Hingle) who,while negotiating the sale of the dead father's meager estate, confront the resentments and misunderstandings thathave plagued their estranged family. Asdark and sobering— and talky— asMiller's script was, Grosbard broughtout its humor and vitality, promptingClive Barnes in the New York Times to pronounce The Price the most entertainingnew play of the season.The same year, Grosbard made hismove to film directing. He directed thefilm version of The Subject Was Roses.Jack Albertson and Martin Sheen repeated their roles, joined by PatriciaNeal in a comeback performance. Themovie earned warm reviews and an appreciative audience.Over the next nine years— a gapthat surprises Grosbard himself inretrospect— he only completed onefilm, the 1971 satire, Who Is HarryKellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me?, starring DustinHoffman. The period, though notfruitful, was anything but idle. Hespent the time in a search, mostly futile, for a project that would engage hisenthusiasm."And it wasn't until I read Buffalo,"he says, summing up the lacuna in hisbiography, "that I came across a playthat I was crazy about. ""Buffalo" was American Buffalo, Chicago playwright David Mamet's explosive drama about three squalid characters planning an ill-fated burglary.When producers Edgar Lansbury andJoseph Beruth sent him a copy ofMamet's script, Grosbard recalls, "Iwas bowled over. It was a truly freshvoice, it was the first really strong freshtheater voice I had read in I don't knowhow many years. "For the cast he recruited his oldfriend Robert Duvall, who had beenabsent from the stage for ten years, aswell as John Savage and the esteemedcharacter actor Kenneth McMillan.Grosbard and the producers had aharder time recruiting investors. "Allcommercial investors turned us downflat!" he recalls. Eventually, Grosbardand some of the others involved in theproduction raised the necessary capitalby investing their own fees in it.Their faith in the play was wellfounded and well rewarded. It openedat the Belasco Theater on Broadway, inFebruary, 1977, to great critical acclaim.Though some did not find Mamet's12 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986pungent dialogue to their taste, fewcould deny the imaginative power behind Mamet's exhilirating torrent ofwords.Grosbard, for one, was confidentof the play's merit, but he was aware ofthe risks he was taking."You know whether you're bucking the odds or not. When we did American Buffalo . . . the kind of language, thekind of life it dealt with simply had notbeen seen, and was certainly not thekind of life that Broadway audiencesrecognized in themselves and wouldnecessarily have sympathy for. But ifyou believe that something is good,you go for it if you can. "David Mamet returned Grosbard'shigh opinion of his work. "It was aneducation to watch Ulu work with theactors, " he told the New York Times afterthe opening. "He created in all of usthe most fantastic feeling of competence. He's one of three or four peopleI've ever met who has any idea how todirect a play" The admiration wasn'tconfined to themselves: the play wenton to win the New York Critics Circleaward for best American drama.Grosbard's next project didn't gonearly as smoothly. A week after American Buffalo opened, he received a callfrom Dustin Hoffman, whose firstdirectorial effort, in which he was alsostarring, was in trouble. The film wasStraight Time, about an ex-convict'scompulsive slide back into crime andprison. The film was so beset by difficulties that Hoffman asked Grosbardto help him out by taking over the direction. Grosbard opted for an approach to the material that was almostchillingly detached with so little appealto either sentiment or moral indignation that it achieves a kind of scientificobjectivity.Not that the film didn't provide compensating pleasures in the form of nerve-wracking suspense, flashes of black humor, and, as usual, eminently watchableperformances. Penelope Gilliat, of theNew Yorker, who found the film "first-rate," wrote that Grosbard "has drawn anear-perfect performance of a very imperfect being from Dustin Hoffman. "Grosbard's next production, TrueConfessions, was almost idyllic in comparison. Making it, he says, "was as relaxed as any picture can be." Afterreading, and liking, John GregoryDunne's novel about an ambitiouspriest and his brother, a police detec tive investigating a grisly Black Dahlia-type murder in 1940s Los Angeles,Grosbard met with the producers andwith the screenwriters, Dunne and hiswife, novelist Joan Didion— "and wehad a meeting of the minds. We sawthat we wanted to do it the same way. "Grosbard offered the role of detective to Robert Duvall, who, Grosbardrecalls, "wasn't crazy about it," butwho eventually relented, "I guesspartly because of our relationship. " Hewas also able to recruit Robert DeNiroto fill the role of the priest. The exceptionally strong cast was rounded outby Cyril Cusack as a pragmatic cardinal, Burgess Meredith as a stubbornparish priest, Charles Durning as a corrupt church benefactor, Ed Flanders asa lawyer for the Mob, and Grosbardregulars Kenneth McMillan, asDuvall's cheerily cynical partner, andRose Gregorio as a bordello madamwho knows secrets about most of theother characters. This gifted ensembleled Vincent Canby of the New York Timesto comment that, "No American film ina long time has presented such a conjunction of acting talent. "The movie Grosbard assembledfrom all this talent was more a subduedpsychological study of moral ambiguities than a rousing whodunit. If occasionally lugubrious, True Confessions wasstill complex and compelling enough towin critical accolades. Canby named itone of the ten best films of the year, calling Grosbard's direction "just aboutflawless."Before he had made the final cut onTrue Confessions, Grosbard was at workon Woody Allen's The Floating LightBulb, which opened at the Vivian Beaumont Theater at New York City's Lincoln Center in April, 1981. For this nostalgic, bittersweet comedy-dramaabout the stranded dreams of a Brooklyn family in the mid-1940s, WoodyAllen and Raymond Crinkley, directorof the Lincoln Center Theater Company, sought Grosbard to direct. Theywere looking for "someone who couldstrike that fine balance between comedy and tragedy— on the one hand, nocheap laughs, on the other no Death of aSalesman," Crinkley told the New YorkTimes. "We wanted Ulu so badly wemoved the opening back two weeks sohe could finish his commitment on hismovie."The production earned Grosbardhis usual high marks for its "sensitive, fluid staging" (Frank Rich, New YorkTimes, ) and for the virtuosity of its ensemble acting, led by Beatrice Arthur,Danny Aiello, and Jack Weston.In 1982, Robert DeNiro sentGrosbard a copy of a screenplay he hadbeen offered, asking Grosbard whetherhe would be interested in directing it."I would have jumped at practically any chance to work with him again, "says Grosbard.The screenplay— Falling In Love,by Michael Cristofer, author of thePulitzer-Prize winning drama TheShadow Box— concerned two Westchester commuters who fall into an extramarital affair that never quite reachesthe point of adultery With DeNiro andMeryl Streep slated for the lead roles,they tried for several months to sell theidea to a number of movie studios,which proved unenthusiastic about sounassuming, old-fashioned a project.Falling In Love was released in November, 1984; (eventually Paramounthad decided to produce it). Grosbard'sdirection, as usual, was characterizedby sensitive performances, maturity oftone, and thoughtful pacing. JanetMaslin, in the New York Times, wrotethat "Falling In Love seduces the audience as gradually as the characters seduce each other. "Since the release of Falling In Love,Grosbard has continued to look forscripts that strike an elusive chord inhim. His next project will be a film, ALikely Story, from the novel of the sametitle by Donald E. Westlake, who hasadapted it for the screen. Grosbard willdo the film for Handmade Films, a British company which produced the filmMona Lisa and the Monty Python films.He is also working on a script with humorist Bruce Jay Friedman, the contents of which he considers it premature to divulge. A "dream project," heconfesses, would be to direct a filmbased on Bernard Malamud's novel,The Assistant.In the meantime, he keeps readingvoraciously, always on the hunt for astory with the ring of truth to it. Hisscript-hunting is so consuming that hemisses the chance to read "just for thesake of reading a book. I wish I couldfind more time to do that. " Fortunatelyfor audiences with a taste for humandrama, and especially for actors andwriters who look forward to collaborating with him, that isn't likely to happen soon, amanner consistent with the university'scentral academic mission, " he said.Pursuant to this philosophy, UAAmembers have agreed to a set of principles that include the following: No athletic scholarships will be awarded.Athletes will be measured againstthe same standards as other studentsin admissions, financial aid, and inmaintaining academic progress.The chief executive officer of eachinstitution will be responsible for ensuring the proper conduct of its athletic competition.Total undergraduate studentenrollment at the eight UAA universities is 42,000. Officials estimate that3,000 will participate annually in UAAcompetition."It means more visibility for ourathletic programs and broadened opportunities for our student athletes,"said Mary Jean Mulvaney, chairman ofthe Department of Physical Educationand Athletics at Chicago. "We hope todraw larger crowds and focus more attention on our programs."We've wanted to do this for sometime, but for various reasons haven'tbeen in a position to do so, " Mulvaneyadded. "This time our wishes happened to coincide with those of otherschools.""We are confident this will be toour advantage in recruiting studentsfor the College," said Bradburn, "because of the visibility of the conference. One of the attractions is that werecruit heavily where these other universities are, and these institutions arelocated in centers where we have activealumni groups. This will enable us tohold alumni events in conjunctionwith athletic events away from home .

"Two recent alumni, both star athletes, agreed."What makes this conferenceunique is that the admissions standardsfor each school will be the same," saidBruce Montella, AB'86, who, as the Maroons' senior tailback last season was1985 's leading Division III rusher. Hewas named Sports Illustrated Player of theWeek, and signed on as a free-agentwith the Chicago Bears. "My teammateshere are known for their academicachievements rather than athleticachievements. These universities allhave high admissions standards. Thiswill make it very attractive to a highschool senior who is seeking the security of academic achievement, knowinghe won't have to compete with a teamwhich is more athletically-oriented."Gretchen Gates, AB'86, the firstbasketball player to be named an Ail-American four times by the AmericanWomen's Sports Federation, said, "Inthe old conference this school was at arecruiting disadvantage, because ofour academic standards. This makes itmore equal. ""There are a good many scholar-athletes, students who are high academic achievers, who want to continuein a varsity sport when they enter college. This will make us more appealingto that group," said Starkey Duncan,PhD'65, professor in the Departmentof Behavioral Sciences and chairman ofthe Board of Athletics and RecreationalSports.Mick Ewing, head football coach,said that membership in UAA wouldnot change the University's methodsfor recruiting student athletes. "We recruit by starting first with the highschool football coach," he explained."We ask his recommendations on student athletes. We then ask the peoplethat he recommends, 'Are you qualified academically to come here?' Welook at the SAT and ACT scores, theGPA, and class rank. If these fall withinthe range of acceptance at the University, then we pursue these students; atthat point we send them informationabout athletics. When we contact a stu dent, we always state what the standards are. We do not want them to setfalse goals."Jay Berwanger, AB'36, who won thefirst Heisman Trophy in 1935, pointedout that the University is simply taking astep it had considered back in 1939,when it chose to drop out of the Big Ten.At the time, the University was con-cernedbecause its high academic admissions requirements and its rigorous academic standards for students— whichlimited the amount of time spent in athletic practice, compared to what wasstandard at competing institutions — putits athletes at a disadvantage on thefield."Back in 1939, the trustees felt wehad three options. We could buy theChicago Bears, form a different conference with like institutions, or drop varsity football, " recalled Berwanger. "Theyvoted for the third option. At the time,they were thinking of an Ivy Leagueschedule, but it was not feasible, giventhe transportation that was then availa ble. I understand that Robert Hutchins(then president of the University of Chicago) was in favor of the second option. ""Alumni reaction to our participation in UAA will be divided," saidBradburn. "I think a majority of alumniwill be extremely happy. But there are anumber of people, particularly thosewho were here in the 1940s and 1950s,who may feel that this is something weshould not be doing."The costs of participating in theUAA will "mean a modest increase" inthe University's athletic budget, saidBradburn. "The thing that makes itpossible for the league to be so far-flung is, of course, technology," hesaid. "In lay's time that was not possible. Today's it's cheaper to fly a team toparticipate away from home. You don'thave to stay as long, so you have lessper diem costs. In fact, it's no more expensive to fly to many of these citiesthan to drive the same group of peopleonly 300 to 400 miles away "The UAA is working toward regularSPORTS SCHEDULES1986 FOOTBALL SCHEDULEDate Opponent Place TimeOctober 11 Lawrence University Home 2:00 p.m.October 18 Beloit College Away 1:30 p.m.October 25 Lake Forest College (HC)* Home 1:30 p.m.November 1 Ripon College Away 1:30 p.m.November 8 St. Norbert College Home 1:30 p.m.November 15 Conference Championship TBA"Homecoming.

Mulvaneysaid Chicago's teams would continueto meet those teams in regular non-conference outings.The University has a strong athleticheritage. Amos Alonzo Stagg and theChicago Maroons— the original "Monsters of the Midway"— virtually invented football as we know it. Under Stagg,the Maroons won six Big Ten footballchampionships between 1892 and 1931.Less well known is the fact that in1898 Chicago's pioneering director ofwomen's athletics, Gertrude Dudley,started the nation's first program ofcompetitive athletics for college women at a coeducational university. Almost eighty years later, in 1973, theUniversity was the first school in thecountry to offer academic-athleticscholarships for female athletes.Today the tradition continues. TheUniversity fields teams in eleven men'sand nine women's varsity sports. Since1976, the University has been affiliatedwith the Midwest Collegiate AthleticConference and since 1982 with the Midwest Athletic Conference for Women.Nearly 400 students participate annually in intercollegiate athletics.

Not us. We hold firmly to the view that along with thephysical exertion of writing (your check for $10, made out to the University of Chicago Magazine, tohelp cover the costs of publishing and mailing this publication to you) you should also be persuaded to exercise at least some portion of the trillions of cells in your brain. Consequently, we'dlike to challenge you to see how many University of Chicago traditions you can remember.Some of you will argue that at the University of Chicago there are no traditions. That statement,and the reiteration of it, has, of course, become one of the most firmly entrenched traditions at thisuniversity. Actually, the University has been rife with traditions since opening day and continuesto be so. As with many social customs, some early traditions have fallen into disuse while othershave sprung up to replace them. So, without further ado, how many of the following University ofChicago traditions can you identify?1. Where was it a tradition to throw selectedpersons on a designated day each spring?2. What color and shape headgear werecertain people required to wear? Which set ofpeople?3. What bristly annual event was heralded atthe beginning by the firing of a pistol and atthe end by the brandishment of a ruler?4. What musical event took place nightly,precisely at 10:06 p.m.? Why?5. For which annual event do students sleepout overnight on the quads?6. Where was the traditional place to proposeto your lover on campus?7. Which piece of campus furniture wasrestricted to certain persons, and what qualifications did those persons need to possess?(Hint: There were two classes of persons soentitled, with differing qualifications.)8. What lectures currently attract 800 persons, all of whom are invited to hang aroundafterwards for munchies?9. How does one traditionally address a deanat the University of Chicago? A possessor ofa Ph.D.? The proud holder of an M.D.? 10. On what day of the week were certainitems worn?11. On which piece of university property isit a tradition never to step?12. What types of insignia were (and still are)taboo on campus?13. What were the traditional places frequented by people cutting classes?14. What musical event, the oldest of its kindin the nation, is held annually, at the end ofwhat other event?15. In what room on campus was it traditional never to wash the windows?16. When is it traditional for Universitypeople to stand?17. With what rhetoric is the freshman classgreeted annually?18. On the eve of what national holiday wasan important social event held? What wasthe event?19. What unpronounceable festival is shivered through annually to help fight thewinter blahs?20. Annually, who tries to pull whom intoBotany Pond?There are/were more, but we're running out of space. Baffled? Low score? Well, we're followinga tradition, too.

"It's just another example of my receiving far more from the University than I have ever been able to repay. "The medal was one of twenty-one awards presented to former students and graduating seniors at the Alumni Association's annual assembly on June 7, Reunion Day, in Swift Hall.Schultz, former chairman and chief executive officer of Foote, Cone &Belding Communications, Inc., received his bachelor's degree after having resumed, part-time, the undergraduate work he started in the 1940s.But even before he finished his degree Schultz was working as an activevolunteer for the University. He was appointed to the Citizens Board in1961 and five years later to the Chicago Campaign Committee.He has been a member of the Visiting Committee to the Division of theSocial Sciences, the College and the Division of the Humanities. In 1977Schultz was appointed to the board of trustees of the University and twoyears later was named to the board's executive committee; he now serveson the board's committee on budget planning.In 1979-80 Schultz was chairman of the Ad-Hoc Commission on Alumni Affairs. He helped to establish the Delta Kappa Epsilon ScholarshipFund. He is also a member of the Library Society, the Oriental Institute,the Board of Governors of the Hospitals, and the long-range planningcommittee for the University's Hospitals and Clinics.* * *"Throughout his endeavors, he has been involved in many of those keydevelopments that have advanced the cause of blacks in American society, "noted the Alumni Association in bestowing the 1986 Alumni Medal onLuther Foster, AM'41, PhD'51, president emeritus of Tuskegee Institute.Foster, president of Tuskegee from 1953 to 1981, was preceded in hisoffice by Booker T. Washington, George Washington Carver, and RobertArthur W. Schultz UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986R. Moton. During his tenure he helpedcomplete the Institute's change from avocational school to a first-rate scientific, technical, and engineering institute complete with a strong liberal artsprogram. During the 1960s he made theInstitute a refuge for civil rights activists but managed to successfully secureannual funding for the school fromstate and federal legislatures.He has been an active member ofthe educational community as a boardmember of the Teacher's Insurance andAnnuity Association, a board memberand officer of the United Negro CollegeFund, and chairman of the Associationof American Colleges. He has alsobeen a board member of the Joint Committee for Political Studies and theSouthern Regional Council.Foster has an M.B. A. from HarvardUniversity and honorary degrees frominstitutions across the United States.In accepting his award Foster creditedthe University with being on the "leading edge" of education. "The University," he said, "is a stimulating environment for critical inquiry and for broadand intense learning experiences onthe nature of essential human values. "Professional Achievement Citations, which honor "alumni whose attainments in their vocational fieldshave brought distinction to themselves, credit to the University, and realbenefit to their fellow citizens," wentto the following: William W Cooper,AB'38; Fritz R. Leiber, PhB'32;Herman Pines, PhD'35; Eric J. Simon,SM'47, PhD'51; and William J. Small,AM'51.Since 1975 William Cooper hastaught at the Graduate School of Business at Harvard University and theUniversity of Texas at Austin, where heis professor of management and accounting and the Nadya KozmetskyScott Centennial Fellow in the Institutefor Constructive Capitalism.His research deals primarily withmaking mathematical models for managerial and social processes which areused to solve problems in industry andgovernment. Cooper is considered afounder of modern management science and education whose work hashad a very real effect on practices inboth the private and public sector.He has been recognized for his work with honorary degrees fromOhio State, Harvard University, andCarnegie-Mellon, and in 1982 he wascorecipient of the John Von NeumannTheory Prize awarded jointly by theInstitute of Management Science andthe Operations Research Society ofAmerica.Fritz R. Leiber, author of Gather,Darkness!, A Specter is Haunting Texas,and The Wanderer is credited with beingthe first science fiction writer to bringthe classical ghost story into moderntimes. He has also been called the finest modern practitioner of the satiricalsupernatural adventure story.Leiber worked as a lay preacher, actor, drama teacher, encyclopedia writer, and associate editor for Science Digest before moving to California towrite full time. Leiber pioneered theapplication of twentieth-century psychology to the writing of fantasy fiction. He is one of the writers creditedwith making fantasy a viable literaryform.He is one of only six writers to beawarded Grand Master status by theScience Fiction Writers of America. In1975 he received the Grand Master ofFantasy when he accepted the GandalfAward. That year he also received theLovecraft Award and the AugustDerleth Award. A year later he received the Life Achievement LovecraftAward. In all, he has received six HugoAwards and three Nebula Awards.In the last fifty years HermanPines, Ipatieff Professor of ChemistryEmeritus at Northwestern University,has made exceptional practical andconceptual contributions to petroleumchemistry.The commercial application of hisearly discovery of paraffin alkylation ledto the production of aviation fuel usedworld-wide during World War II. His research also made the production of highoctane gasoline possible on a daily basis.And he is largely responsible for opening up the major field of base-catalyzedhydrocarbon chemistry.Pines, who has produced two booksand published more than 260 papers ondifferent aspects of catalysis and hydrocarbon conversion reactions, has beenawarded more than 145 U.S. patents.He is the recipient of the AmericanChemical Society Award in petroleumchemistry and was recently awarded anhonorary doctorate from the UniversityEric].

Simon, professor of psychiatry and pharmacology at New YorkUniversity and a renowned neuro-scientist, has made major contributionsto understanding of the chemistry of thebrain.Smith and his collaborators wereone of the laboratory groups in 1973 toreport the discovery of opiate receptors in the brains of animals. Whenmorphine and other narcotics bind tothese receptors, feelings of pain areblocked. Discovery of these receptorsled scientists to confirm the existenceof endorphins, naturally occurringopiates, which are believed to be veryimportant for modulating pain, behavior, and mood.Smith has been a professor atN.Y.U. since 1959. Among his manyhonors are the 1977 Research Pacesetter Award from the National Instituteon Drug Abuse, the Lewis and BertFreedman Foundation Award in 1980from the New York Academy of Sciences, and the 1983 Nathan B.

In thoseforty-eight months, significant changesboth in the direction and substance ofthe alumni relations program have occurred. There are now thirty-two chartered University of Chicago Clubs, including The University of Chicago Clubof Metropolitan Chicago (UC^MC),which is the 'umbrella' club for all 27,000Chicago-area alumni. Local club programming has increased dramatically.Our student relations program hasburgeoned with the help of an activeStudent/Alumni Relations Committee.Students have gained membership onthe Cabinet. Alumni records are on-line;a national alumni directory is due out byearly 1987. We've seen a one hundredpercent increase in reunion participation and International University of Chicago Day is on the way to becoming thequintessential summer alumni event.We can share pride in the alumni andstudents honored through the Association's national annual awards program and in the increased services foralumni, including the travel/study toursoffered each year. Fundraising activitiesand Admission/ Alumni Schools Committee programs have also prospereddramatically.I also wish to report that the executive committee, following the recommendation made at last year's Cabinetmeeting, undertook as its final majortask during my presidency the job ofevaluating the governing structure ofthe Alumni Association. That self-evaluation has resulted in the restructuring of the Cabinet and executivecommittee to reflect more accuratelythe true working relationship of ouralumni leadership organizations—The Alumni Fund Board, The AlumniSchools Committee Board, and theCabinet. This restructuring, I believe,will bring a cooperative coherence toour operations. In the new structure,the Alumni Fund Board and AlumniSchools Committee Board will continue to support the fundraising and student recruitment efforts of theUniversity under their present structure. The Cabinet has been renamedthe Alumni Relations Board to reflectits service, i.e. University of ChicagoClubs, programming, reunions, student relations and career contacts. TheAlumni Relations Board no longer includes representatives of the professional schools, Alumni Schools Committee, or Alumni Fund Board, butincludes the class reunion chairmen,club presidents, selected students, andat-large members.A new Alumni Executive Councilwill oversee the activities of the threealumni boards and The University ofChicago Magazine, and will function asthe governing body of the Alumni Association. Membership includes chairmen of the Alumni Fund Board; theAlumni Schools Committee Board;and the Alumni Relations Board (allappointive positions); four representatives of the professional schools'Alumni Associations; the president ofThe University of Chicago Club ofMetropolitan Chicago (or the vice-president for Programs if the same person serves as president for more thantwo years); the chairman of The University of Chicago Magazine advisory committee; and representatives of the threealumni boards. All will serve one or two-year terms. Non-voting members includethe directors of the Annual Fund, theAlumni Schools Committee, and Alumni Relations; the chairman of the annualreunion; the vice-president for development and alumni relations; the dean ofadmissions; and the editor of The University of Chicago Magazine. The AlumniExec-utive Council will meet quarterly to acton items proposed by the boards and toassist in planning activities of the threeboards. The constitution and by-laws ofThe University of Chicago Alumni Association are being amended to reflectthese changes.The new president of the AlumniAssociation, effective October 10, isEdward L. Anderson, PhB'46, SM'49,Princeton, NJ. Anderson's volunteer service for the University has been extended, generous, and wide-ranging.His service includes national chairman of the Alumni Schools Committeesince 1980, a member of the NationalAlumni Cabinet since 1972, a memberof the Ad Hoc (Schultz) Commissionon Alumni Affairs (1979), and a member of the Visiting Committee to theCollege since 1972. An investment manager, Anderson recently retired as president and chairman of Tweedy, Browne,Inc., investment advisors and membersof the New York Stock Exchange.With the recent retirement ofCharles D. O'Connell, vice-presidentand dean of students in the University,William R. Haden has assumed responsibility, effective July 1, for Alumni Relations and The University of Chicago Magazine. Haden has been vice-president fordevelopment since 1982; his new titleis vice-president for development andalumni relations. His appointment isviewed by all of us as one that will bemost helpful in coordinating volunteeractivities, insuring the success of thenew governing structure, and expanding and nurturing alumni relations. Awarm welcome to you, Bill.It has been a privilege and honorto serve as president of the AlumniAssociation for the past four years.Alumni volunteers have more thanplayed their part in the successes wehave had. I thank them and all of youfor your interest, encouragement andsupport. As for the future, under thenew governing structure, and with theleadership of such able and committedalumni, I know we can look forwardto the continuing growth, expansion,and improvement of alumni relations.a28 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/FALL 1986Oil & WarContinued from page 5of the revolution. Simultaneously, thewar keeps Iran isolated internatonal-ly and exacerbates its difficulty inexporting the revolution to other Islamiclands. With the succession from poweraway from Ayatollah Khomeini to hisofficially designated successor, Ayatollah Ali Montazeri, Iran will likely withdraw from the active military pursuit ofthe war.The winding down of the war willnot, however, reduce the centrality ofthe Persian Gulf. It will remain at thecenter of our maps for the simple reason that the countries which surroundthe Gulf have the oil, or at least, theyhave most of it. Iran, Iraq, Kuwait,Saudi Arabia, and the United ArabEmirates contain sixty percent of theworld's proven reserves of oil. SaudiArabia alone owns twenty-four percent of the world's proven reserves. Irrespective of the size of future oil findselsewhere — and low oil prices reducethe possibilities of other discoveries byreducing international oil explorationand development — these countries arelikely to retain their command overworld oil reserves. The cost of oil production in all six countries is extremelylow, resulting in the availability offunds for further exploration, if necessary. Furthermore, because the individual oil fields surrounding the Gulfhave proven to be so huge, relativelylittle exploration for petroleum has occurred. In fact, since the beginning ofthe oil industry in the Persian Gulf in1906, following the award of a concession by the Shah of Iran to an Australian adventurer, William Knox D'Arcy,fewer wells have been drilled in all sixcountries than were drilled in the continental U.S. in 1985 alone. In short,the resources for exploring for additional oil are high, as is the likelihoodof major new finds. Whenever thesecountries believe they are losing theirdominance in the international oilbusiness, they will find more petroleum. Their oil will be the overhang onwhich the world will depend for its consumption for the remainder of theoil era.That the Islamic experiment in Iranwill continue; that the Iran-Iraq Warwill be pursued with ever-increasingIranian successes, at least until thedeath of the Ayatollah; and that the sixprincipal oil states of the Gulf will retain their dominance as oil suppliers,are all assured. The Persian Gulf willremain, for the indefinite future, thenew cartographic center of the MiddleEast. But to predict the future of oilprices with the same assurance is a farmore difficult challenge.rROM THEIR LEVELS ATthe end of 1985 the price ofoil has fallen close to its historic lows. In inflated 1986dollars, the all-time lowprice for a barrel of oil was $8.00. By midsummer 1986, oil was available in thePersian Gulf for less than $7.00 a barrel.OPEC ministers were under immensepressures to increase their countries'plummeting revenues. By the end of thefirst week of August, they had agreed ona fascinating scheme to do just that.Iran's oil delegate, Gholem Reza Agha-zadeh, under orders from the powerfulSpeaker of the Iranian Majlis, Hojjat olIslam Hashemi Rafsanjani, proposed adeal to Sheikh Ahmad Zaki Yamani ofSaudi Arabia. The deal was straightforward and potentially very lucrative. Fortwo months beginning September 1, alloil states, with the exception of Iraq,would adhere to new production quotaswhich would produce a total output ofclose to fifteen million barrels per day.Iraq was excluded from the quota andwas free to produce whatever level of oilit could. Since Iraq has been unable toget its oil output above one-and-a-halfmillion barrels per day, total OPEC output would likely be in the range ofsixteen-and-a-half million barrels, considerably less than the output before theOPEC agreement which had reached twenty million barrels. Furthermore,the new OPEC commitment encouraged the third world nonOPEC oil producers to agree to further cuts in theirown production. If the scheme held, total world production would fall by closeto five million barrels per day.As might be expected, there was animmediate response from the oil futures markets. The price jumped frombelow $10 per barrel to close to $15 perbarrel. But the question remains: whatis the likelihood of OPEC adhering toits new, self-imposed quotas? By allreasonable accounts, the conclusionwould have to be that it is better, butnot much better than they were able toadhere to quotas in the past.The principal factor driving oilprices in mid-1986 is the assessment bypolitical leaders of the balance of risksproduced by varying levels of oil production. Higher levels of productionby any single country, at every pricelevel, will result in higher revenues forthat country. (Producers such as SaudiArabia with vast surplus productioncapacity have demonstrated their capacity to produce sufficiently far abovemarket demand so that their production behavior alone can drive downprices.) Higher revenues produce material well-being and political stabilityat home.But higher prices and higher revenues from higher production work forIran as well. The result is greater material well-being for Iran. That well-being will be translated into moreeffective and threatening Iranian battlefield behavior. That threat appearsfar more tangible to the rulers of Iraq,Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, at least,than the threat of lower levels of well-being for their own populations. Forthe likely consequence of an Iranianvictory in Iraq will not only be the overthrow of President Saddam Hussein,but the establishment of an Islamicfundamentalist regime in Iraq. Thepressures on the royal families ofKuwait and Saudi Arabia would thenbe immense. So the temptation forthese countries is to drive prices downeven if, in the process, they have to suffer considerable domestic financial sacrifice. Their sacrifice will be less thanthat borne by Iran. They can withstandlower oil revenues far more successfullythan can the Islamic Republic, for Iranhas a huge population, more than 45million, a war ravaged economy, and2fvast military expenditures. Lower revenues should translate into impeding theIranian war effort.The second major factor affectingthe future level of oil prices will be irrelevant, in any direct sense, to theIran-Iraq War. As long as vast surpluscapacity exists in OPEC, there willbe powerful incentives for any givenOPEC member to cheat on its assignedquota. As long as most members ofOPEC restrain their production— atleast the major oil players such asSaudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UnitedArab Emirates— any other member ofOPEC can increase its revenue by increasing its production without simultaneously driving down the price of oil.Therefore, it is in the interests of anygiven member of OPEC to cheat. Aslong as OPEC can boast a mammothsurplus production capacity, there willbe a perpetual risk of each memberstate's playing a "beggar my neighbor" policy. What will turn out to begood for any individual state in theshort run will turn out to be injuriousto all OPEC states in the long run.M ^^^ IVEN THESE TWO^K H factors, the threat of^^k I relentless Iranian^^^^^^^^d| military^^^^^^^^ and the predilectionfor reaching for the additional oil revenues to improve one's own domesticprosperity, OPEC will be in constantdanger of overproducing its quotas.Furthermore, despite the best effortsof OPEC, the cartel has never been ableto create a satisfactory mechanism formonitoring, let alone regulating, theproduction of member states. Giventhe advantages accruing to the individual state which violates its quota andthe costs which are borne collectivelyfor all OPEC members— a classic dilemma of any social institution — and theabsence of regulative mechanisms,there is a constant predilection forcheating.Add to this the anxiety and turmoilproduced by the perpetual war between Iran and Iraq and the consequence is an oil scenario of great instability. Can one expect OPEC membersto remain faithful to their new agreement? Not particularly. The conse quence will be a short term stabilization of oil in the $15 a barrel range,likely followed by falling prices.For Western consumers, the consequences will be positive. Any reductionin oil prices is in effect a reduction of taxes within the consuming economies.The consequences of falling oil priceswill be diminished inflationary pressures and greater stimulus for economicgrowth. But in the producing countries,the consequences will be contrary. Theirdomestic material well-being will de-LETTERSContinued from inside front coverunwise financial moves for no other reasonthan that a mob of ignorant students demanded such vacant symbolism.Robert W. Blair, X'43Flagstaff, AZEditor:The cynical, hypocritical announcementof the establishment of two new University ofChicago scholarships for black, South African students— including a patronizing, racistquotation of Hanna Gray to the effect that it isthe white man's burden of U.S. universitiesto prepare those stupid black folks for leadership positions— came on the page followingan article about a vote of the Faculty Senateagainst divestment of University holdings incompanies with investments in South Africa.If the powers that be at the University ofChicago were authentically interested inthe lives of South African blacks, theywould manifest their solidarity by opposing the fascistic Botha regime through immediate and complete divestment.Martin Pimsler, AM'80Chicago, ILMORE ON WOMENIN SCIENCEEditor:I was pleased to see the article on Chicago alumnae in science in the Spring issue,and I was not surprised to see DavidWesner's letter denigrating it as a "women-crying-in-science" article in the next. Having taught at Yale University for the pasteight years, I have been struck with howmuch more advanced thinking about therole of gender in the structures of societyand knowledge is done at Yale than at Chicago. The reasons stem partly, I think, fromthe fact that whereas women undergraduates have been admitted to Chicago since itwas founded, the first women undergraduates were admitted to Yale only in 1969.Thus, whereas the social context of educa- crease. The Iranians will pursue the warwith more and not with less vigor. Theresult will be great political turmoil andthe increased possibility of the spreadof Islamic fundamentalism. Those dangers—political turmoil, war, and theconsequences of a vigorous Islamicfundamentalism— entail major politicalrisks for the United States and the West.As a result, the Persian Gulf will remainat the center of Western interests. Andthe Persian Gulf will remain at the centerof our maps. Htion at Chicago made questions about therole of gender in society and culture appearrelatively uninteresting if not moot, thesuddenly changing social context at Yalemade the social importance and intellectualchallenge of such questions not only visiblebut urgent, at a historical moment when ananalytic vocabulary for addressing suchquestions was already being forged. When Iwas an undergraduate at Chicago, I wasonly too glad to be treated as though I wereno different from a male; only later, as Icame to understand the extent to which myeducation there taught me to think like aman, limiting the kinds of questions I couldask and my range of inquiry, did I begin torealize the limitations of such an education,not only for women but also for men.Wesner says that if you publish moresuch articles, he will "simply stop supporting the Magazine." I, on the other hand,hope that you will publish more such articles and that you will make them strongerby focusing on the substantive issues ofgender and science that such scientists asEstelle Ramey have illuminated in theirwork (on the model of the article on brainfunction in the Summer 1986 issue.) In thatway, you can disarm such critics as Wesner,who can doubtless distinguish clearly between scientific analysis and social injustice, or what he calls "complaining"; helpto inform alumni and alumnae of contemporary intellectual issues that their education may not have addressed; and continueto honor the intellectual achievements ofwomen who are challenging not only socialprejudices against women in science butepistemological gender bias as well.Christine Froula, AB'71, PhD'77New Haven, CTEditor:I started to read the article about women in science with a rather ho-hum attitude, but when I read it, I found it interesting and insightful.

But a common element withinthis diversity is the need for the rawmaterials of research. Original texts,bibliographies, statistical data— theseare only a part of the inventoryscholars must draw on. And buildon. Investigation of Schubert'srelations with his publishers raisesquestions about the 19th-centurymusic market. These, in turn, suggestlines of inquiry into the cultural lifeof a growing European middle class.And study in this area may lead toinsights about the shaping of valuesthat still influence our own attitudes.The work is unending because it isever expanding, bringing newquestions to light, bending back onitself, confirming assumptions— orraising doubts about them. TheUniversity of Chicago Library existsto support this process. Its successhas been recognized. Like our ownfaculty and students, visiting scholars frequently comment about havingfound among its collection of overfive million volumes the one or twobooks that are "just right" for whatthey need.
