Across the pond, in London, the Atlantic Bar and Grille played host to Harvard globe-trotters. One source told FM that some intellectually curious Harvard folks turned down an exclusive party for the Elgin Marbles. (We dig.) Freshmen, juniors and seniors rubbed elbows in Harrod's and traded stories in the Tube. But with miserable weather, arduous museum-visits and third-rate eats, Ivy League breakers needed chemical relief and patronized the local "chemist" for great U.K. drugs (unavailable in the U.S. without prescription...

A white male Army officer groaned, "We've managed to tick off both women and minorities...
Naturally, we were proud to receive this honor. But, being journalists, we were also curious about how Adweek measures heat. We learned from Eric Garland, Adweek's editorial director, that the main criteria are hard performance numbers: ad-page and revenue gains in the magazine's competitive category, and circulation gains. The advertising gains, as tracked by the Publishers Information Bureau, were collected for the past three years, with the greatest weight given...
