...Abby is, in every other way, a perfectly normal child who has no shortage of extracurricular activities, including horseback-riding lessons and dance classes that she's been attending since she was 4.

(Incidentally, McLoughlin assured students that Hilles’ museum-grade concrete would restrict sound to the fourth floor.)We applaud the College for renovating the fourth floor with an eye towards the needs of students (not just student groups), and especially towards Quad residents. Although undergraduate housing will likely be relocated from the Quad in the next two decades after Houses are built in Allston, the College cannot ignore...
