...percent. The University added another 1.6 million square feet during fiscal 2005, according to the report.“The University is actively identifying and implementing strategies to mitigate the effects of volatility in the energy markets,” the report stated.Harvard also spent $470 million on the construction of new facilities, as well as new acquisitions and renovations. The costly process of planning Harvard’s expansion across the river into Allston helped drive up expenses for services purchased by the University by 21 percent to $274 million.The University also incurred “certain legal settlement...
University planners presented a series of images depicting Harvard’s future campus in Allston to community residents at the Honan Allston Public Library on Monday evening. Chief University Planner Kathy Spiegelman flicked through slides showing possible locations for Harvard construction projects on the new campus. None of the options were new, and all of the images have been on display for the last month at the “Harvard in Allston” exhibit room in the Holyoke Center. Nevertheless, Spiegelman did comment on the viability of some of the plans. For example, Spiegelman said a proposal...

It is a strikingly effective directorial decision, connecting modern viewers to the action and reinforcing through another medium the play’s pain and conflict...
...counter cancer tests available in drugstores in the near future. Ritesh Agarwal, a former Harvard postdoctoral associate, published a paper this week in Optics Express on a new technique for assembling and arranging nanowires, which are smaller than any circuitry currently available, even on microchips. The ability to construct specific, three-dimensional, nano-scale devices at the whim of a researcher has until this week been elusive. Because nanowires also have the ability to direct light, they have potential applications in “optoelectronic” devices, which use light instead of electricity to do computations. Agarwal, working with...
GLADWELL: We're not talking about the end of those identities. We're talking about the multiplication of identities so that in addition to the strong national identities, you start to construct new ones. FedEx now has direct flights from interior Chinese cities to cities in North America. So start playing that forward. You're allowing a class of people in China to layer on a new identity to their existing identity of Chinese businessmen as member of some kind of international business lite...
