...Review so far, perhaps it is to Montesquieu whom the administration should turn at this stage. History has proven Montesquieu’s emphasis on systems of checks and balances invaluable to America, and we believe the current University administration ought to take to heart the lessons from this country??€™s founding fathers. While the College—as opposed to the state—will never be governed democratically, the recent revelation that most of the proposals of the curricular review will ultimately be at the unchecked, unbalanced mercy of University Hall is disturbing...
Compare that to Harvard Stadium—literally the oldest operational football field in the country??€”more than 100-years young, yet arguably as pleasant as during its teen years that led up to World War I. No luxury boxes—hell, I’m still thankful the press box has electricity—but the concrete seating is fan-friendly to be sure, the mobile toilets are armed with pine-tree air fresheners, and the walk to the field’s Allston home isn’t so bad from the Business School.

...burden. We take issue with Bush’s mortgaging of the environment in deference to corporate interests. And based on Bush’s nominees for federal appeals courts, we shudder to think how Bush’s Supreme Court nominees would alter the social landscape of this country??€”starting with a repeal of Roe v. Wade—for the decades to come...
