...first hour of the 90-minute UC session was dominated by heated debates over the Financial Committee??s (FiCom) grants packages. Representatives from the Harvard College Democrats and the Harvard Republican Club were present to lobby against the UC’s decision to fund less than a third of the grant requested for the 2007 Bipartisan Paintball Brawl. After discussion over the role of precedents in granting UC funding, and whether or not the UC should fund entertainment activities, the council voted to grant the full amount requested by the organizers of the event...
...would also serve as an excellent resource for a back-and-forth between students and Faust. And an official committee has many benefits that an unofficial one does not—it would likely get more time to actually talk to Faust, and her imprimatur would increase the committee??s profile, garnering more and better input. Having an official student committee is all the more important because of Faust’s lack of experience overseeing undergraduates. Indeed, at a recent meeting with the UC, Faust admitted she had only a few limited windows on the Harvard undergraduate...

...legislative committee to write this lenient philosophy into the new general education system and to construct a Standing Committee on General Education that is more flexible than its current counterpart.It is also up to Faculty legislation—which would presumably be drafted by the same committee??to deal with the transition period between the Core and the new general education system, which will likely not come into force for several years so that new classes can be designed. We hope that current students who will never see the new program will nonetheless benefit from the task force?...
...cost-effective way to expand student dining options. Staggering dining hall closing hours or providing more substantial food at brain breaks might be more economically feasible than an across-the-board extension of mealtimes. But whatever the decision, one thing is clear: the status quo must be changed. The Committee??s report also comes out against a more flexible system of dining plans, in which students could choose how many meals to eat at Harvard. Here, the CHL’s conclusion is sound. One of Harvard’s greatest assets is its tightly knit residential communities...
