...voted for Sullivan because I have supported the family for over 50 years,” said Benedict F. Fitzgerald, a 93-year-old who is a lifelong Cambridge resident, outside of the polling place at the Graduate School of Design’s Gund Hall...

Gross ’71 would not have pledged money to the Green Crimson Fund but for student expectations; the Energy Task Force would not have convened without the overwhelming support shown by undergraduates in last year’s vote. Sustainability, in short, would not be such a priority within...
