Procrastination-prone Harvardians just got another reminder, courtesy of the Harvard College Library (HCL), that their vice will not be tolerated in the libraries any time soon.

On Feb. 1, all reserve-holding libraries—Cabot, Fine Arts, Fung, Harvard-Yenching, Lamont, Littauer, Loeb Music, Tozzer, and the Quad—upped the penalty for late items from...
...pole vault, respectively. Scherf edged her competitors with a time of 4:49.79, while Serdakowski’s time of 8.84 earned her the victory.

I watched with new eyes, however, mindful that we are at war and that these sorts of entertainments can influence the public's sense of the struggle, especially serious films that purport to show the reality of the conflict, as Syriana and Munich...
...sign that read, “15 percent off when you apply for a Banana Republic Card!” I picked out a black leather bag and eagerly awaited my discount in the cashier line. But one glance at the application form for the card was enough to dash my hopes. It was a simple form asking for my name, date of birth, phone number, mailing address, and of course, Social Security Number (SSN). I explained to the cashier that I did not have a SSN because I am a foreign student, but she was absolutely clueless...
