...place to rock out, and Hilles’ fourth floor should offer both the practice and performance space they need, far from the eardrums of students in their dorm rooms. (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...
...organize events to raise money for the millions of affected individuals in the region.

He has repeatedly asserted that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, that the intelligence that caused him to attack Iraq was wrong. We applaud the President for finally acknowledging those mistakes. Given the Administration's sad record of incompetence in planning and executing this war, we do have concerns about the President's ability to bring it to a successful conclusion. In the meantime, we hope he will continue to be candid about...
...aggressive, overwhelming response to any uprising. I'm sure that the Kurds and the Shi'ite majority, with the support of the U.S., could deal with the Fallujah insurgents. Sometimes the antidote is a bitter pill to swallow.
