...miss before beating everyone to the endzone. “Chris hit the young freshman on a shallow cross on what we call a smash route,” Murphy said. “Matt Luft made the exact adjustment.” Now down just 24-14, a direct snap out of a punt formation on a similar fourth-down situation on the next possession saw sophomore defensive tackle Matt Curtis scamper eight yards past the line of scrimmage, keeping the Harvard offense and the team’s chances for a comeback alive. “When you?...

...Whether or not it did in fact advance beyond the effectiveness threshold of a planned economy, the Fainsod system—with its myriad dispersed committees—seems to have created confusion for students seeking a direct avenue to gather and voice a collective opinion.

...some troops may be voting with their feet.
