Teaching fellow performance has joined eating concerns, sexual health questions, and peer support networks in the realm of Harvard student hotlines. A new e-mail domain allowing student feedback on TF performance went live at 11:59 last night, after being arranged and approved by the Undergraduate Council (UC). Students who want to relay concerns—or compliments—about particular TFs can now send an e-mail to TF@hcs.harvard.edu and have their comments addressed confidentially and promptly, according to a bill unanimously passed by the UC yesterday.

This understanding can't be ignored; not too much seems to get done on earth without...
Could such a "great drain" happen again, sucking liquidity out of the international financial system? Many experts would dismiss the idea as mere doom mongering. A full-scale war, they say, is one of those "10-sigma" (10 standard deviation) events that are so rare they lie outside the domain of risk management. Like an asteroid hitting the earth or a global influenza pandemic, a really big war belongs in the realm of uncertainty. You just can't price...
