...Houses to the Square or the Yard.” Oh, the humanity! Students at universities with truly far-flung campuses, like Arizona or Michigan, probably wouldn’t mind a 10-minute walk or shuttle ride to class. The same goes for commuter students at campuses like Bunker Hill and UMass-Boston. (Harvard has its own tradition of commuters, as described by the great alum Theodore H. White.) And when you’re commuting in the real world—riding the 1-9 from Washington Heights to Wall Street, say, or idling in five lanes...
...Before a log fire, diners swap stories about recently visited castles, or that nasty bunker on St. Andrews' 17th hole. The convivial mood extends to eight welcoming rooms in which you're encouraged to stay the night. Making this a good idea is the comically excessive amount of wine served with the evening's tasting menu. The aftermath of six brimming glasses will definitely add to the shock of leaving this gem the following morning to do battle once more with those elemental golf courses along the coast...
Perhaps real change will have to wait for the retirement of Formula One's most influential figure. At most races sits a black-and-white bunker-mobile with blacked-out windows.

Even if you want something more substantial between meals, you can usually convince a member of the dining hall staff...
...Inside the camp, Israel ambles through the thick snow with no gloves on a 2°F day, pointing to the sparse bunker where he slept crammed together with other prisoners on tiny bunks. Then, next to the railroad tracks, he spots the location where the "selection" process took place. This was where Nazi officers separated those deemed able to work from the other new arrivals, most of whom were immediately taken to the gas chambers. Israel, then 17, and his two brothers, Eli and Aaron, last saw their parents here. Within weeks, Israel's brothers would also be dead...
