...squash. In that way the same exhilaration that pervaded the sidelines in the Yale Bowl can be replicated more regularly on our campus. In the meantime, those who were lucky enough to be at The Game can savor a triumphal end to a historic season. The specific plays may fade from the forefront of spectators’ minds, but the memory of the Crimson’s fantastic season will linger on for as long as there is Harvard football...
That’s not an easy message to accept and Three Sisters is daunting because it forces its characters and its audience to confront the notion that reality endures even after dreams fade away. Though the production does not always make its points in a clear fashion, which is vital to maintaining interest and understanding with such a difficult piece of work, the quality of the individual performances helps this Three Sisters achieve much of the poignant beauty of Chekhov’s words...

Though the process of creating a grass photo itself is something of a science, Ackroyd and Harvey turned to purely scientific enquiry to overcome a flaw in the material. Like photographic paper, an image printed on grass will fade if it is not fixed in some way. The images Ackroyd and Harvey created would last only as long as the chlorophyll (the green pigment) lived. Once the grass died, so did the chlorophyll and the image would fade in a relatively short period of time, several months at most. So Ackroyd and Harvey teamed up with scientists to overcome...
