...Nathan M. Pusey ’28, to call the cops into the Yard when students occupied University Hall. By the time my class arrived on campus in 1975, Bok’s calm and deliberate style had already soothed the waters. Although he may not have done it fast enough for our impatient tastes, he eventually got the university on the right side of the divestiture issue (embracing the “Sullivan principles”), undergraduate education (rolling out the Core Curriculum), and affirmative action (on which he later co-authored a wise and supportive book...

Take away that first period and we hold them to 1-0.”The Crimson powerplay struggled against the potent...

The Boston Globe ran a piece last year on Gen X Dads with the headline: "Luxury vacations, fast-track careers, and bigger houses used to be a priority for family men, but no longer. Today's young fathers are taking paternity leaves, rejecting overtime, and rushing home after work to do all the things many of their own fathers didn't." The story noted that...
