...Reluctant Campaigner Columnist Michael Kinsley argued that "we need to know about a politician's spouse ... in order to understand the candidate's character" [Jan. 26], but I have absolutely no problem with Dr. Judith Steinberg Dean's not tagging along behind her husband on the campaign trail.

With the same devotion they apply to resolving other pressing conflicts, many Crimson visionaries have initiated bold proposals—though with little success—in an effort to energize the anemic dating scene that plagues our school. As a Crimson columnist from the 1980s so eloquently put it, “Loneliness can motivate anyone to do most anything—this is Harvard after all.” In the spirit of St. Valentine’s Day, I dedicate this column to memorializing the probing analyses and valiant efforts...
