...debate over terrorism continues, various parties have been trading blame. The BJP has accused the Congress of cooking up charges against the arrested Hindu right-wingers, while the Congress has been accusing the BJP of playing a double-game of pointing fingers at the Congress while lending a hand to Hindu-fundamentalist terrorists. Mumbai has been a focus of the tension between the parties, as several of the so-called Hindu terror arrests have taken place in or near the city. Perhaps the size and scale of this most recent attack will force the country's political leaders to finally...
...cannot blame everything on how the humanities are taught. The problems in classrooms and sections are most often perpetuated by students themselves, even if they are initiated by professors.

No: For whatever reason, the cosmos themselves are aligned against any such rally held on Harvard’s grounds. No more than five have been pulled off in a half-century. And if 2005 was any indication, these rallies are pretty stupid, even when they succeed. If anything, we should be happy that, these days, Harvard spirit can only barely induce shoving. Everyone...
...Higgins ’11 initially sought to buy a ticket off of a House list but was able to get a free ticket after the extra tickets were made available. “I guess I was a bit upset that the tickets ran out, though I also blame myself for just neglecting to think about getting one till way late in the week,” Higgins said. Although many students went through with sales of their free tickets, some who had advertised available tickets ended up giving them away to friends or keeping them. Lewis M. Ward...
