It's getting worse. This is reminiscent of the stories they
told about the USSR in the _Weekly Reader_ in the 1950s:

| affairs conference has been a marquee event on campus,
| bringing in students from around the world for a week of
| lectures and discussions with high-ranking diplomats and
| officials.

| But this year, the event was abruptly canceled, just weeks
| before it was set to start.
