...their rapid certification and bonuses, the so-called boot-camp teachers agreed to work in schools with more low-performing students and discipline problems, where experience in classroom management is as important as knowing your subject. Similarly, in New York City a court ruling requires the city to assign a newly certified teacher to the lowest-performing school in which there is a vacancy, even if that school is far from the teacher's home...
...colleagues, including her and Richard's daughter Louise, 29, in Nature last week, pushes the presence of coexisting species back another million years, to between 3.5 million and 3.2 million years ago. That's right in Lucy's time. Yet it is so different from Lucy that they assign their fossil, which they call Kenyanthropus platyops, or "flat-faced man of Kenya," to a new genus, or grouping of species.

Yet Faculty have access to cars and can easily live off-campus--undergraduates cannot. It makes more sense for this prime campus space to be occupied by students and to assign faculty to subsidized housing more removed from the heart of Harvard. Converting these buildings into spaces wholly devoted to student living and folding them into the existing House system would also end their status as ambiguous halfway houses, neither House nor apartment. All Harvard students have a right to be well...
