...While TECH may provide a deep information bank of entrepreneurship resources, many aspiring student entrepreneurs on campus feel that practical training is simply unavailable for undergraduates at Harvard. With the notable exceptions of ES 147, Sociology 159, and Engineering Sciences 139: “Innovation in Science and Engineering,” the College does not offer any classes in professional business skills. Undergraduates are also largely excluded from classes across the river at Harvard Business School, which would otherwise be applicable to their business pursuits. Most students seeking this sort of training, such as accounting or strategic decision making...
...pieces don't come cheap. Stanley's multiple-edition giclées (i.e., prints on canvas) start in the vicinity of $1,600, while original acrylic paintings - such as his self-portrait in makeup with a studded leather collar - can go for as much as $50,000. Last year alone, he did an enviable $3 million in sales. (Take that, Yale MFAs.)

A confused young Everyman journeys to the top of a mountain, where he is instructed by a wise old man given to restating the obvious ("Find and use the good that is hidden in the bad time"). The peaks and valleys of the title are the ups and downs...
...lighter, we exchanged the usual first-time banter. “I’m from the States, live in Massachusetts but grew up in California, took a few Spanish classes, am an Obama fan, and study Social Studies (Inevitably, ‘¿Qué es eso?’).” She was in her fifth and final year of studies and spent much of her time working in a battered women’s shelter. Our exchange was cut short by the professor’s arrival, and I sighed in relief because my pathetic...
...know where you are with Es Castell (www.fincaescastell.com), however. A sprawling 12-bedroom stone house dating from the 11th century, the hotel is tucked into the southern slopes of the Tramuntana Mountains in the north of the island. To walk through the doors is to step back in time - the tiled floors, white walls and exposed beams make it difficult to argue with manager James Hiscock when he describes Es Castell as "one of the prettiest hotels in Majorca...
