COVER STORY
Quality classes? Page 12
Life at a world-class research university is not
always what it's cracked up to be for Michigan's
20,809 undergraduates. This week's cover story looks
at the effects of research and graduate programs on
undergraduate instruction and what some people on
campus are doing about it. Cover photo by Dan Habib.
DISCS
Easy-listening Lori Page 3
An excerpt of interviews and review of songwriter
and composer, Lori Anderson proves why her second
hit album, Mister Heartbreak, is such a success.
MUSIC
The not-so-British sound Pages 4 & 5
This English band has been a hit with a guitar
sound rather than a Boy George look. Big Country is
featured, with an interview of the lead singer. Also
featured is the seven-foot Texas singer/songwriter,
T-Bone Burnett, who is making a rock comeback.
FILM
Sappy Selleck Page 6
Tom what-a-hunk-of-a-man Selleck tries his hand
again, for a second time, at film. Find out
why Selleck, in this typical plot of strong silent men,
and sexy women, should stick to "Magnum." Catch
this week's review of Lasitter.
