...tragic part of the human condition but is sometimes necessary to combat such evils as slavery, fascism and, yes, terrorism. The Iraq war, however, will achieve no noble purpose. There were no weapons of mass destruction, and democracy will exist in Iraq for about as long as U.S. troops are there. Many more Saddams are waiting to rise to the top in Iraq. We were naive to think we could easily paste a veneer of Jeffersonian democracy on a land where tribal allegiances date back centuries. By almost any measure, this war is unnecessary and a tragic blunder...
...coming with their children. “If we can give it to them, we give it to them,” said Kukunova. “If not, we ask if they would mind staying with a master or in a guest suite.” Guest suites exist in each House to accommodate visitors and come with maid service. Other skaters will be staying with masters in Leverett, Eliot, and Lowell, and in the Winthrop, Kirkland, and Eliot guest suites. Two of the skaters, Morgan Matthews and Maxim Zavozin, will be staying in an Eliot student suite, which...
Well you can’t, or at least not fully. But if success is to be rewarded, differences in the quality of schools have to be acknowledged.

For example, some magazines, like Currier House’s prose magazine, are highly specific and could easily merge with others. And publications are not alone—there are five Christian fellowships, three Korean groups, and five business councils, just to give a few examples.Evidence of the overabundance...
...describe for you the two typical types of TFs, for it is ironic how they are so different in design, but so similar in their level of ineptitude. The typical science or math TF’s command of English is usually shaky at best, and totally non-existent at worst. When you walk into your section and feel a seismic wave of relief that practically knocks you to the floor when a TF speaks a clear and coherent sentence in English, you know your expectations have fallen unreasonably low for what your $40,000/year is supposedly buying. Meanwhile...
