...enigmatic, dynamic, and unreported events of the all-boy prep school. The HRDC’s newest drama, “The History Boys,” rips this mystery wide-open with a witty, yet tense, tale of eight English schoolboys as they prepare for their college entrance exams. As “Oxbridge candidates,” they must face the reality of adulthood, while their flavorful, poetical English professor Mr. Hector fights to protect the boys’ playful youth.Ostensibly, Hector (Ilan J. Caplan ’10) parallels the Mr. Keating...

But he'll be the hero of the Western world if his plan to subsidize the sale of toxic assets leads banks back from the brink...
...just before the exam period that Harvard started its current eight-game ECAC winning streak. Much of its recent success can be attributed to the stellar play of Vaillancourt, who leads the league with 30 points scored in conference play. Over the last seven games, Vaillancourt has scored 19 points, giving her a hand in 19 of the team’s last 23 goals. A Kazmaier nominee once again this year, the senior will have to continue her hot streak if Harvard hopes to come away victorious this weekend...
