...cranks two home runs in the first three innings, it usually adds up to a win.But for the slumping Harvard baseball team, nothing has guaranteed a victory of late. The Crimson (1-17) failed to muster much offense beyond captain Matt Vance’s two homers, and Holy Cross (9-14) used an eighth-inning triple to steal a 4-3 win yesterday at Fitton Field in Worcester, Mass.

Behind a rusty chain-link fence, an old church stood in cross-section, exposing its soul to the world. The area was completely abandoned—our car was the only apparent source of movement and sound. I felt like a rubbernecker each time my family stopped to snap photos, but nobody was around to judge. I hadn’t expected...
...walks of life. His ability to lead the admissions process in a way that we really admit the most talented students worldwide is unparalleled.”Fitzsimmons returned to work in the admissions office at the College in 1972 after teaching in the sociology department at Holy Cross for one year. He served as the director of admissions for 10 years beginning in 1974. He assumed the role of dean in 1986, after serving a two-year stint as the director of the Harvard College Fund.O’Donnell called Fitzsimmons the best admissions officer in the country...
