...Crimson’s first Ivy victory after an 0-3 start, when Madick bailed sophomore Margaux Black out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth and pitched a perfect seventh inning to earn just her third career save. Madick pitched six hitless innings in two games against Columbia the following weekend, got the win in both contests with shutout innings against Penn, then threw six shutout innings in relief of sophomore Dana Roberts against Holy Cross. After lights-out pitching in her relief role and with Ivy League North Division play opening against Yale, Allard saw the opportunity...
...Harvard women’s golf team took second in the Roar-ee Invitational this weekend, bouncing back from a tough first round of play to finish ahead of Ivy League rivals Princeton, Yale, Columbia, and Brown.

Starting with a pilot program at New York City's Columbia University, RecycleBank is putting special kiosks in cafeterias and dorms. Each student gets a RecycleBank card and takes their recycling to the closest kiosk, where they swipe their card, weigh their recycling and claim their points. The campus model required a little tweaking on Gonen's part - the dorm kiosks, he notes, are prank-proof (you can douse them in beer...
Although Vanessa Parise ’92 concentrated in biology as an undergraduate in Kirkland House, she has spent most of her post-college career outside of the sciences. After receiving acceptance letters from the medical schools of Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Cornell, and Stanford, she deferred for ten years in order to pursue acting in New York. “It was a really hard decision and an ongoing one. I kept deferring and coming up with a choice each year. For ten years I did that,” she said in a phone interview with The Crimson last...
