...does approve changes to the calendar, students would still have a long wait before they can enjoy stress-free winter breaks and easy cross-registration at the University’s other schools. Any large-scale changes to the calendar must be approved by the Harvard Corporation—the University’s executive governing body—which is set to meet on June 6. If the Corporation approves Bok’s recommendation, the changes will take at least two years to implement, according to Secretary of the Faculty David B. Fithian...

Technological and legal issues have been resolved by this small group of dedicated students and satellite television could soon be accessible in upperclassmen houses through electrical wires. For $25 to $35 per month, Harvard students could enjoy 250 channels of DirecTV. This proposal is not a whimsical claim of entitlement to better television; it is a refreshingly motivated and entirely student-funded project that will fill an embarrassing gap in the quality of student accommodation. The administration should allow this system to be installed in dorms across...
