    HHolyoly CCrossross BBaseballaseball 22006006 AABOUTBOUT HHOLYOLY CCROSSROSS Holy Cross is renowned for its academic excellence and mentoring-based, liberal arts education in the Jesuit tradition. An exclusively undergraduate institution with just over 2,700 students, Holy Cross is the oldest Catholic college in New England. Founded in 1843 in Worcester, Massachusetts, the campus occupies 174 beautifully landscaped acres, featuring traditional and contemporary architecture, state-of-the-art facilities, and striking views from atop Mount St. James. Academic life at Holy Cross is serious, challenging, and ex- citing. Student-professor exchanges in the classroom, as well as in countless informal settings, are at the center of academic life at Holy Cross. With a student-faculty ratio of 11:1, the opportunity for individual attention is readily available. Few classes exceed an enrollment of 40, and most average 19. Holy Cross professors are widely respected in their academic specialties. Many have national reputations for their research and publications, creative performances, recordings, and exhibitions. Almost all of the nearly 280 full- and part-time faculty members hold doctoral degrees from some of the fi nest universities here and abroad. Among the major academic facilities on campus are Dinand Library (which, along with three other specialized libraries on campus, has total holdings of 601,730 volumes); Iris and B. Ger- ald Cantor Art Gallery (with a regular schedule of world-class exhibitions); Brooks Concert Hall (acclaimed by performers and acoustical experts as one of the fi nest medium-sized performance spaces in the region); St. Joseph Memorial Chapel (built in 1924 and containing the recently renovated McCooey Chapel on the lower level); Hogan Campus Center (with bookstore, post offi ce, coffee lounge, cafeteria, and pub); Carol and Park B.

NELSoN' A familiar, received wisdom commonly surfaces when to- day's authors portray the history of twentieth-century family law. According to the received account, family law through most of the century displayed an overtly sexist, patriarchal orientation which emphasized the superiority of male family heads and the dependency of women and children.' As the story continues, a new feminism born in the 1960's brought forth demands for gen- der equality, and the polity's acceptance of those demands wrought revolutionary transformations in formal legal doctrines regulating husband and wife, and parent and child.2 The re- ceived wisdom recognizes, however, that the changes induced by the feminists paradoxically produced few tangible benefits for women. Even today, men have retained their economic domi- nance, especially in the aftermath of family breakups, and single * Joel and Anne Ehrenkranz Professor of Law, New York University.
