...could alter the character of the Lab by drawing too much publicity too early. “In part, this is an effort to avoid a brain-drain and keep local conditions intact,” Bruderlein said. But Bruderlein added that he hopes Harvard can still serve to connect the fledgling Lab with research being conducted at Harvard, despite the loose affiliation. The Harvard program now serves primarily as an information hub for conflict resolution practitioners worldwide through online portals, according to Zehra Hirji ‘10, a research assistant with the program.

One of his goals is to use the internet to connect and link different texts and lectures; ideally, students reading about Mankiw’s lecture on marginal utility can click on a link that brings them to a Brown professor’s take...
...climate change. "That's priority number one," says Mittermeier. But some degree of warming is inevitable, so conservationists have to prepare.

These installations are more than just digital destruction—they stand alone as creative works. Although the original films may be severed, distorted, and pixilated, the result is artful and provocative...
...platform of hope, reform, and change. Well, actually there’s just one, but with his new album “MURS for President,” underground hip-hop icon MURS is trying to shake things up in his own way. It’s easy to connect the frustration of “MURS for President” and the artist’s inspi-rap of change with Barack Obama’s message of hope. But as similar as the two campaigns may be, “MURS for President” is fundamentally about...
