...ball, Harvard outshot Penn 15-6, with the Quakers managing only two bids in the second half. Junior goalkeeper Kylie Stone denied every shot of the first half, earning four saves on the match. Penn was able to push one past with 10 minutes to go, but its comeback attempt ended there. While the Crimson finished with a decisive victory, the competition was high in the opening battle between Ivies. “With the Ivy League, it’s always a good match-up,” Berglund said. “It’s always...
...more years than I care to admit, I have had my depression under control for nearly two years. As I was on my way to a support group meeting last week, I realized I was feeling despondent about the way a friendship was ending. "Is my depression making a comeback?" I asked myself.

...decades, though, this truth was ignored by those who studied markets. Only in the past decade has it made a comeback. The landmark academic work in this vein was a 1997 paper by Harvard economist Andrei Shleifer and University of Chicago finance professor Robert Vishny (who has since left Chicago to become a full-time money manager). Their argument focused on arbitrageurs who use borrowed money to bet that small market mispricings will disappear but who can't get banks to go along with their sometimes contrarian thinking and lend them money exactly when the mispricings--and thus the opportunities...

The Crimson (1-1) reclaimed the series against the Wildcats (2-2) last night in a 3-2 decision with an explosive second half. Neither team had a goal on the scoresheet when the first-half whistle sounded at Jordan Field last night, but the short halftime break sparked an offensive surge in both teams. Just minutes into second period, the Crimson tallied its first score of the season, with captain Devon Shapiro assisting on a goal...
...shot on goal in 90 minutes against George Mason Sunday. It was a good one, but not quite good enough for Harvard to avoid its first loss of the season. Merritt scored off a pretty feed from Nichols in the 69th minute, but the Crimson couldn't complete the comeback after allowing two Patriot goals earlier in the second half. George Mason struck soon after the break, scoring just two minutes into the second frame on a header from L.J. Williams. "The game really went back and forth between the two teams," Nichols said. "It was about effort...
