...show up to games, the scores would be practically indistinguishable. And would anyone notice if Handsome Dan were not dragged around the field? Probably only Handsome Dan, and the mascot would surely be all the happier to skip the exercise. Maybe we could also finally stop hearing about Aleksey Vayner. It is so tiring when it is that easy to make fun of someone. Yale University President Richard Levin could finally retire on his yacht. After making all that money—on the highest presidential salary among the Ivies—he surely deserves a break. Not that...

...pound bench press, 120 mile per hour tennis serve, motivational schlock, and ballroom dance moves. As other blogs piled on, word spread fast—and faster still when we reported on his shady consulting firm, fake charity, and partially plagiarized book about the Holocaust. All that Aleksey Vayner had wanted was a job at Goldman Sachs. Instead, by Monday, he became the most scrutinized student celebrity since Kaavya Viswanathan ’08 “internalized” another author’s novels...

...company of one sleek Apple device. Kicking back, you struggle to remember what life was like without the iPhone, back in that dark time before 2007.

...time since 1879, the Porcellian tailgate (which came complete with a dead pig!) was THE place to be. At the Kirkland tailgate, an ’09er deliberately exposed himself to everyone’s favorite sex blogger. Impossible is nothing, literally. Phoho’s pre-Harvard-Yale Aleksey Vayner theme party featured a DJ, refreshments, and a grand total of zero guests. There was even more of nothing at the Pajama Party held at 45 Mount Auburn that Saturday night. Boston-based sororities and frats convened in the anarchy center dressed in little more than teddies and stilettos...
