...correct, they'll fit right in. Many of the homes in this neighborhood are owned by foreigners who paid more for them than most people make over five lifetimes. The house next door, which has a pool under the driveway, is owned by an Arab family who bought it for $20.5 million. And a few minutes' walk away, in Kensington Palace Gardens, Indian steel magnate and Britain's richest man Lakshmi Mittal owns a manse that's reportedly worth about $112 million...
These days the biggest risk posed by the girls' enthusiastic recitation is that it may drown out the math lesson next door. Basira, a thin 8-year-old whose obligatory white head scarf is actually a cotton dish towel printed with Korean characters, stands before the class.

...fact remains that any consideration for these other roles and their sensitivity is vastly outweighed by the need for public oversight over HUPD’s potent police powers. Though The Crimson’s 2003 lawsuit was ultimately defeated in the Commonwealth’s highest court, the door was left open for the Legislature to modify state law so that all campus police departments in Massachusetts would have to comply with existing freedom of information standards. Thus far, the Legislature has largely remained stalemated on this issue, which is disappointing. If the Commonwealth’s legislators...
