...Radcliffe. To help out with the adjustment, we have asked the Campus Commando, a local expert on quick and unnecessarily violent solutions to everyday problems, to share his knowledge in a first-year Q & A session.

That's why Spanish scientists spent three years studying fossils they discovered at Sierra de Atapuerca in northern Spain. They wanted to be sure of what they...
