...Norman Vincent Peale and a volume from Kahlil Gibran. Thus enlightened, Jonathan is apparently reborn. He returns to his flock and spreads the good word in a sort of Sermon on the Garbage Mount: "Listen, everybody! There's no limit to how high we can fly! We can dive for fish and never have to live on garbage again...
...surprisingly, despite the loss of last year's entire offense, Harvard soccer has not taken the nose-dive most expected it to take. With the 4-2 comeback win last Friday against Dartmouth, the Crimson moved back (for however brief a time) into the Ivy race with a 2-1 record.

So it was something of a shock last week when Anderson took a deep dive into rumination and surfaced aglistening with optimism. Taking a long view of his trade, Anderson raised a rhetorical question about the muckraker's role in a time of widespread corruption and scandal. Might not he further weaken the national spirit by encouraging cynicism and despair...
