...health of its student body. Anonymous testing was instituted in 1996 as a result of months of campaigning by campus AIDS activists. They did this because they knew what Rosenthal seems to have forgotten: that a severe stigma existed—and still exists, albeit to a lesser extent??against HIV-positive persons. In a recent interview with The Crimson, Rosenthal argued that HIV/AIDS is no longer enough of a stigma to justify testing, a sentiment that has not been echoed by Harvard’s AIDS activists. The option for all HIV testing to remain...

...guitars and colorful blankets on sunny days, about idle conversations under the spreading chestnut tree, about endless hours sacrificed to the furnace of Frisbee. This is what television told us, it is what our older siblings at state schools told us, and it is—to a large extent??what the Harvard viewbooks told us. When we arrived here to find it mostly a fiction, we wrote it off to the fact that Harvard must just not be like other places.

...spirituality should play in their universities. According to the report, 81 percent of college professors identify as “a spiritual person.” Nearly two-thirds of faculty describe themselves as “a religious person,” either to “some extent?? or “to a great extent.” Sixty-one percent said that they pray or meditate, and only 37 percent of professors said they are “not at all” religious. Some students said that the study highlighted the significance...

...sort of stereotypical thinking that leads to such irrational responses to contact with black people is the same motivation behind the creation of organizational nicknames, like Angry Black Harvard Women (in place of Association for Black Harvard Women, or ABHW), and—to a lesser extent??alleged self-segregating tendencies. Granted, people come from a variety of backgrounds and may have limited experience with those unlike them, and therefore may thus far have been depending on unreliable sources like the media to frame their impression of black people. But at Harvard, with the abundance of resources...
