Shteremberg, who graduated summa cum laude in computer science from Tufts this past spring, said that his undergraduate activities were probably the reason for his nomination as a Siebel Scholar. At Tufts, he organized a research symposium as the president of Eta Kappa Nu, the electrical and computer engineering honor society, and also helped to found the Tufts Wireless Laboratory, where he developed the Body Sensor Network, which can detect human activity...
...whose entrances are even more convoluted than the Green Line, the Northwest Science Building provides order and clarity.Every aspect of the building—from the multi-storied walls of glass to the shiny silver handrails—has a certain sleekness; it’s an Apple product-cum-building.

And when we give people our segmented attention and piecemeal time, says Crenshaw, "we end up damaging relationships." So put down that damn BlackBerry, as it were...
...Justice Antonin G. Scalia defended constitutional originalism at Harvard Law School yesterday, punctuating the final moments of his speech by shouting “I don’t have to prove that originalism is perfect!” to a packed, applause-filled room. Scalia, who graduated magna cum laude from the Law School in 1960, delivered the inaugural Herbert W. Vaughn Lecture, a biannual address that will focus on the “founding principles and core doctrines” of the U.S. Constitution. In his speech, entitlted “Methodology of Originalism,” Scalia...
