With less than five minutes to go in regulation, it was Taylor who netted Harvard’s final goal, arriving at the back door to redirect a shot that freshman Alex Biega had launched at the net from the blue line...

The research won him half the 1958 Nobel Prize. Later, the longtime Rockefeller University president became the first to demonstrate that an organism's genetic material could be manipulated...
...martyrdom is admirable, even preferable, in a saint, but it is terrible in a relationship in which generosity demands payment in guilt.

It goes without saying that different publications have different audiences, and naturally, some are better received than others. Despite the waxing and waning of magazines’ popularity, it says something positive about the state of the free press and entrepreneurial spirit on campus...
