...that dress...yeah she did look like a slut.” But Math does not agree with all of Friedman’s musings. “I don’t go to church and my dad is Jewish,” Math says, responding to the claim that he hails from “classic Shaker stock—good old-fashioned...Protestants.” In addition, Math says the claim that he peaked as a high school quarterback in GQ lacks veracity: “I’m at Harvard now.

...seniors, the last weekend was a last chance to take the court in front of the home crowd.And while they couldn’t claim two wins to their credit, Katie Turley-Molony and Sarah Cebron finished their Malkin Athletic Center careers with a flourish, as the Harvard women’s volleyball team came from behind to defeat Columbia in five games on Saturday afternoon after dropping a 3-2 heartbreaker against first-place Cornell on Friday night.Both members of the Class of 2007 played well in their final home match: Cebron registered a double-double with 34 assists...

A September paper by David Macpherson of Florida State University advanced that claim, arguing that a wage hike in Arizona could cause 4,627 workers to lose their jobs. But the paper relies on assumptions that many economists consider outdated and inaccurate. Recent studies have shown little evidence of such job losses in states that have raised their minimum wage in recent years. A letter signed by 650 U.S. economists, including five past presidents...
