Last spring it seemed that the College was finally ready to reevaluate the Administrative Board of Harvard College, the archaic body of about 30 administrators that serves as the College’s primary disciplinary arm. This fall, we were told, a committee named by then-Dean of the College Benedict H. Gross ’71would reevaluate the entire system, with a particular eye toward the lack of student representation on the Board. We had hoped that this reevaluation would fix the lack of due process in Harvard’s disciplinary system. But this summer, Gross abruptly resigned...
...spends much of each game running circles around defenders and chasing down balls. Against the Stags, he scored his second goal of the season on an unassisted play in which he evaded two defenders inside the box before tucking a shot under the goalie’s outstretched arm. With all those weapons available, perhaps the only surprising thing about Saturday’s massacre was that Harvard was only up 1-0 at halftime. “I don’t like to put this on us,” co-captain Adam Hoff said earlier this season...

Several hundred protesters were dragged off in waiting police wagons, the rest took refuge in the cool halls of the Supreme Court, where the blood of the wounded pooled on the white marble steps of the main entrance. "There is blood on the steps of Pakistan's Supreme Court," said Ahsan. "The people...
...then, there he is - and laughter is freedom's only appropriate reaction. The bubble bursts. He denies not only the Holocaust but also homosexuality? Suddenly, it all becomes obvious: We are being played by extremists on both sides. To be sure, Iran does arm Hizballah, and it does have an active nuclear program that may or may not be proved to have hostile intent, and it is making trouble for the U.S. in Iraq, supplying weapons to our enemies. These are all problems to be addressed soberly and perhaps even, eventually, with multilateral force. But the neoconservative campaign to transform...
