Donal Logue '88 explains his roommate Tarver's modesty in terms of his local--as opposed to global--outlook. Tarver's identity has emerged simultaneously from three disparate cultures: the Boston underground music scene, his home town of San Antonio, Texas, and Harvard.

Shultz had delayed his own departure for the summit, believing that Noriega was about to yield.

...Such close monitoring can cut both ways for a journalist in the field. CNN's Latin-American correspondent Lucia Newman was taunted by a mob opposed to Panamanian Strongman Manuel Antonio Noriega after she was seen smiling during a televised interview with the general. But when ousted President Eric Arturo Delvalle granted an interview to a U.S. network, he chose CNN because of its high profile in Panama. Ultimately, Newman's reporting offended Noriega, and she was expelled from the country...
