AUC Press revolution works, festival prompt some skepticism


I don't appreciate what seems like AUC's and AUC Press's appropriation of a revolution for commercial purposes, but I also believe that they were between a rock and a hard place: after all, at the time when the new AUC campus was inaugurated Suzanne Mubarak was the First Lady of Egypt, so it was not inappropriate for them to invite her to serve in this capacity. On the other hand, many of AUC's actions during the revolution were, in my opinion, indefensible.
