...example, derives 35 percent of its budget from donations to its gift account. Without transparency and clarity, they cannot adjust their spending plans and fundraising goals. The advantage of using gift accounts in the first place is that they offer both donors and student groups a substantial advantage over direct contributions. Gift accounts enable donors to deduct their donations from their taxes because the recipient of the donations is technically the University, not the groups themselves. Without these accounts, student groups would have to establish themselves as 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, which is a difficult, time-consuming process...
...start with an uncomfortable and increasingly important truth: flying's pretty tough on the environment. Sure, today's aircraft are some 70% more fuel efficient than planes operating in 1970. But passenger numbers are soaring: the industry[an error occurred while processing this directive] expects to fly 2.2 billion this year, 10% more than in 2005. The result? Aviation's share of global CO2 emissions, now around 2%, is expected to hit 3% by 2050. Problem is, flying is often the only way to go. Four-fifths of airline-related emissions come from journeys over 1,500 km, for which...
...other top schools used to hold annual meetings at which they shared information on their financial aid policies. But the schools agreed to stop the information swaps in 1991, as part of an agreement with U.S. Justice Department antitrust prosecutors.Even if the schools aren’t in direct contact, Harvard hopes it holds some sway over peer institutions’ practices.“We’re looking for all the company we can get,” Fitzsimmons said.Harvard, like Princeton, won’t end its early admissions program until the next academic year?...
...Harvard’s pass-first offense working at full speed. But Pizzotti’s efficient 10-for-13, 126-yard debut was spoiled early in the second quarter when he went down with a knee injury. The Crimson then turned to untested sophomore Jeff Witt to direct the attack, and asked Dawson to assume a more prominent role. While Pizzotti attempted 13 passes in slightly more than a quarter, Witt would attempt 13 over the remaining three. Dawson responded to the increased workload with 37 rushing yards and a touchdown on the team’s next offensive...
...reaching the targets would be a problem for the warplanes. Israel does have aerial tankers, which would be needed to fuel the jets for the long flight to Iran and back, and its F-15s and F-16s have been conducting a lot of refueling training. For the most direct route to Iran, Israel would have to sneak its planes across Jordan and obtain fly-over rights through Iraq from patrolling U.S. jets. That means Israel would likely have to get if not Washington's approval for a strike, then at least "a yellow light," says Jones...
