Contrary to the Crimson's argument, documents in the custody of the HUPD do not become "public records" simply because some of the HUPD officers have been appointed "special" State police officers under G.L. c. 22C, § 63. This statute provides that the colonel of the department of State police (colonel), at the request of an officer of an educational institution, may appoint employees of such institution as special State police officers.

A few Governors and mayors have already switched to hybrid cars for their official use. But so far, Pelosi says...

Harper resigned from the Harvard Corporation in July, 22 Caucus members published a letter in Harvard Magazine addressed to the committee searching for Harper’s replacement. The letter called for the committee to appoint a Corporation member who would “have deep knowledge of and a close affiliation with the academic world.” This month, the search committee appointed Patricia A.
