...concern highlighted when students need money for cab fare or midnight snacks. But a Harvard University Police Department representative at the meeting said HUPD would prioritize safety over convenience, citing the risks associated with installing an ATM in a residential area, which include increased foot traffic and public access. While ATM providers, including Bank of America, told Quad students leading the effort that budget woes would prevent them from installing an ATM, at least one bank—Harvard University Credit Union—has said it would provide the ATM at its own expense.

...Olympics were thwarted last year, the CCTV complex fire shows that the current government grip on dissent and free information will become, sooner or later, unsustainable. No matter how they spin it, it was not possible for the government to control the imagery around the tragedy; everyone with access to the Internet could see the skyscraper burn.

Once checked in, most patients are required to stay for three months, isolated from the outside world, without access to cell phones and, of course, computers. Parents of patients at the Internet-addiction center have to stay for several weeks of treatment too, since, according to Tao, Internet addiction is often a result of "parenting mistakes." For most families, paying for this care is a sacrifice. The cost...
