...timer at the Bobcats goal, but Quinnipiac netminder Bud Fisher was too quick. Meintel had another chance to earn the win for the Crimson as he shook off his defender and snapped a wrist shot toward the goal, but the puck just missed the net, leaving Harvard with a draw. “We’re never happy with losses or ties,” Donato said, “but you know with the situation we had created, I think that a tie was very-well earned.” —Staff writer Courtney D.

...Because of the arcane rules of the Democratic caucuses, this success was self-reinforcing. All candidates were required to draw at least 15% of the vote in a given precinct; if they failed, their supporters had to line up behind their second choice. The unprecedented large turnout put the 15% mark out of reach of candidates like Sen. Joseph Biden and Sen. Christopher Dodd, and many of their backers turned to Obama...

Asians collectively comprise a fifth of campus. But what of other, less represented groups? Mexican Americans make up 3.7 percent of the undergraduate population, while comprising 7.4 percent of the United States. Native Americans comprise an even smaller...

Compare it to the grotesque exaggerations of Picasso's 1928 Bather (Metamorphosis 1), a work that Moore knew and which Composition appears to draw from, and you can see the road not taken. It's not that the sources for Moore's sculptural forms were always gentle and benign. Anything but. They could often be traced back to his service in World War I, to a world of dismembered limbs, warrior helmets and bone...
