...members of the student advisory group—Whitney S. F. Baxter ’07, Katherine A. Beck ’08, and Vivek G. Ramaswamy ’07—are the College representatives of the group, whose members are from all schools of the University, except for the School of Dental Medicine and the Extension School. Matthew J. Murray, a joint-degree student at the Kennedy School of Government and Harvard Law School, leads the group. Wednesday’s meeting was open to all undergraduates, though Baxter, Beck, and Ramaswamy targeted the meeting to members...
...regular-year weekend schedule, as driver availability allowed. Tempesta was very friendly and conveyed his sincere desire to accommodate student demand. The weekend shuttle would run every 20 minutes to the three major undergraduate destinations: Currier House, Mather House, and Boylston Gate. This is an excellent policy, except for the fact that the shuttle isn’t yet fully operational. As a result, it isn’t consistent and so most people are unsure about the schedule. To find the schedule, Tempesta suggested that I check the website. However, upon visiting the website, the only information present...
...idiosyncrasies, actually seem to care about teaching (perhaps because they’re both recent transfers from Washington University in St. Louis.) The more grandfatherly of the two, Joshua R.

For extra fun, ask Sanes to pronounce the name of "Rita Levi-Montalcini," a famous Italian neurobiologist. You won't be disappointed, believe us. Professor Jeffrey Lichtman...
...colleague and I just did a story about something called prosperity theology based partly on John 10:10, so I key that in, and up pops the appropriate chapter of John in the New King James translation, with the verse hilighted in yellow: "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." This is already an improvement over BibleGateway, which needs to be told to provide the verse in context. Better still, if I tell eBible to, the verse...
...corner table, you'd find a cast of political characters drawn in bold Texas strokes-men with firm handshakes and loud laughs, men who had been nurtured by LBJ and knew politics, by and large, for that matter, mostly men. Most women in the room then were decorative. Except Ann Richards, the onetime Texas governor with the sharp tongue and quick wit, who died Wednesday at the age of 73 after a battle with cancer...
