Verba said the Faculty ought to distinguish between policies relevant and irrelevant to academic life in determining which debates to bring to the Faculty forum. While Faculty members should be free to address questions of divestment individually, he said, the Faculty should debate and be allowed to take a stance on an issue as close to the interests of the University as academic freedom...
...Among the potential drawbacks to a tracked expos system, Harvey suggested that because Expos is intended to impart a “body of basic concepts and values pertaining to academic writing at the college level,” it would be “unclear what would decisively distinguish a higher level course” from a lower one. He notes, moreover, that “it’s not as easy to define a harder or higher level writing assignment as it is a math problem...
...order did not distinguish itself in the run-up to Iraq. The French preened for the pacifist European street. Hans Blix's inspection regime wasn't nearly as muscular as it needed to be.

Holy Cross did not do as much to distinguish itself from Harvard. The Crusaders lost nearly twice as many games (seven) as the Crimson (four). Holy Cross didn’t beat a single NCAA tournament team and its best wins were over Siena and Vermont. Harvard beat two NCAA tournament teams—Manhattan, which won Siena’s conference, and Boston University, which won Vermont’s conference despite losing twice to the Catamounts. The Crusaders’ conference (the Patriot League) had a lower RPI than the Ivy League, and Holy Cross...
