...Quad on Friday night, the campus will be divided in two. Though the Harvard College Dean’s Office is quick with assurances that it will fund extra shuttles between the Quad and Harvard Square that night, the simple fact is that, with few exceptions, Quadlings will attend the parties in the Quad, and River-dwellers those in the River Houses.

...Federal regulations require that top officials use commercial airlines unless the trip can't be accommodated by a commercial carrier.

They only happen once a week, and they're pretty boring. Maybe a better way to help everyone participate in French society would be to get them jobs...
...religion is clearly on students’ minds. The preliminary general education report says that 94 percent of Harvard’s incoming students talk about religion frequently or occasionally, and 71 percent say they attend religious services. And with 26 different religions represented on campus in the United Ministry at Harvard alone, wouldn’t it be better to inform students’ discussions with historical and social context...
