Gary Trudeau [Doonsbury] went to Yale with W. and knew him slightly. But Trudeau was editor of the Yale paper and interviewed W [then head of a fraternity] - that was branding with hot iron the logo of the fraternity onto the buttocks of the initiates and he defended it and admitted to participating....interesting in light of his actions as President and his statement defending it after!.....the interview is
on the BBC now.

It seems that the interview is not on the BBC now...
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
