...doubt in my mind that if the Tigers need this game, they’ll find a way to win it. Four years of watching Princeton dismantle Harvard’s hopes (as well as many other squads around the league) in heartbreaking fashion makes one never count the Tigers out in a must-have situation.But if Penn gets past Yale, or Princeton falls to Brown, take the homestanding Bulldogs. If the Tigers need the win to force a meaningful game at Jadwin on Tuesday night, Princeton wins it by one.CORNELL AT DARTMOUTHDepending on how things shake out Friday evening...
...response to “UC Slates Curricular Review Meeting” (news, Feb. 27), I would suggest that Harvard’s interim president adopt a simple interim solution to reform of the core curriculum: vastly expand the number of departmental courses that count towards the core requirements...

Designating which departmental courses count towards the core should not require the unpredictable and after-the-fact process of individual student application to the Registrar.

The offensive flurry represented the highest single-game goal total for the Crimson since 1997. Sophomore Natalie Curtis led the way with a game-high five goals and seven point, while freshman Kaitlin Martin contributed six points in the winning effort. Harvard employed a 6-0 run early in the first half to break open a tied game and bury the Crusaders, who fell to 2-1 with the loss. Junior Kathryn Tylander starred...
