...like the turning of the seasons, an indelible mark on the ebb and flow of Harvard life: some poor blocking group is quadded to Currier House, their burning effigy dissolving into destroyed hopes on the otherwise calm Charles.

...Frank Gehry’s new building at MIT, designed with the idea of collaborative communication among quiet, shy professors in mind, has already created murmurs of increased productivity. The hallways and common spaces require day-to-day interaction by necessity.
