...blistering 4-1 start to the season spiral into a five-game losing streak, the rookie’s play has continued to improve. Even if his contribution does not always translate to victories, the Harvard lacrosse program can only benefit as Gibbons grows more comfortable and begins inspiring fear in opponents rather than feeling it himself. It may be too early to predict the course of Gibbons’ four years of college lacrosse, but La Fiura has tremendous faith in the rookie’s potential.“For someone with as much skill as Dean...

...overwhelmed by a nagging feeling of guilt that lingered after the arrest. We’re lucky enough to attend a university that pays such attention to our comfort. Every undergraduate here has to admit the College does more than enough to keep us safe from hunger, cold, and fear every day. When Harvard protects its property from outsiders, it ensures for students and faculty the availability of a quiet and safe space to live, work and study, protected from the intrusion of the outside world. For that outside world (which includes Macleod), it ensures only strictly-enforced exclusion. We?...
