...many different stories came to a head this week! FlyBy loved all the confrontations. We enjoyed the “empowerment?? theme, too, but we’re unsure about the show’s handling of minorities.

None of my Harvard experiences has indicated the gender gap in leadership positions that the forthcoming Women’s Center report promises to show, as women hold top spots in every one of my extracurricular activities.
