This touchy-feely stuff comes in part from Bonderman, who taught law at Tulane University in New Orleans in the 1960s but reportedly fell out of favor because of his "hippie" clothing and outspoken liberal viewpoints. He is an ardent conservationist, working with the Grand Canyon Trust and the Wilderness Society...
...ardent, the living death of Elvis' sad decline might have supplied paradoxical proof of supernatural powers, but the strongest evidence of the King's capacity to outwit the Grim Reaper lies in Elvis' art itself.

Students in cramped houses, professors in understaffed departments and the ardent supporters of a student center can now hope for a new era at Harvard. Once the University expands into its spacious holdings in Allston—totaling more than all the University’s Cambridge land—space will be freed on both sides of the river. But while expansion offers many obvious advantages for Harvard, it will pose significant challenges that will require creative, foresighted administrative planning. Expanding into Allston must be done...
