...that are causing these collections to be ignored.” As the Harvard University Art Museums move forward with their plans for the organization and development of new museums, we echo the survey’s call for a permanent gallery for African art, though we find the claim of “archaic, racist views” to be extravagant. While many of our peer institutions like Yale and Stanford have permanent exhibits, many structural considerations seem to have hampered the Harvard University Art Museums (HUAM). According to Daron J. Manoogian, the Director of Communications for HUAM, only...
...other candidate can claim similar success. Turnout has been lackluster for all Republicans this year. In South Carolina, Obama drew more under-30 votes than all Republican candidates combined, according to exit polls.

...Lego's legacy lies less in numbers than in its creative influence. The colorful bricks have littered playroom floors for generations of families. But they have also spurred ingenuity among children that few toys can claim before and since. The company has always emphasized the importance of free-form play, and Lego's popularity can be attributed to the amount of imagination children use to build with the bricks...
