Those troops are charged with establishing safe zones to protect refugees from violence-torn Darfur. That imposition of well-armed foreign soldiers, French officials say, would have complicated Khartoum's plans to destabilizing the Chadian regime...

French Defense Minister Hervé Morin put both...

The Fogg is the only museum out of Harvard’s three that is not devoted to a specific region, while the Busch-Reisinger houses Northern and Central European art and the Sackler houses Islamic and Asian art. Despite this regional freedom, however, the Fogg is still limited by various space constraints and endowments that come with stipulations. For example, the Winthrop Collection, the largest of several important donations, was given to Harvard under the condition that a certain...
