...Kennedy School of Government seek to increase the number of low-income students applying to higher education institutions by simplifying the application form and formula for calculating federal financial aid. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a standard form that many college- and university-bound students fill out to apply for federal financial aid and tuition assistance, including Pell Grants. The 2005-2006 FAFSA is a five-page form that includes 127 questions embedded within seven different steps, which assesses students’ abilities to afford college.

But I can't help wondering if we're underestimating the countervailing effect: the cost we're paying in our disconnection from our immediate surroundings, in our dependence on a continuous flow of electronic attention to prop up our egos, and above...
...Harvard women’s tennis team looks to fill some big shoes as it kicks off its Ivy League season this weekend against Cornell and Columbia. The Crimson (2-11) has won the Ancient Eight title each of the past four years and has not dropped an Ivy match since 2002. However, Harvard became the victim of a large turnover this year and returned only one player, captain and No. 3 singles player Preethi Mukundan, leaving the fate of the championship up in the air. Nevertheless, Mukundan believes that the non-Ivy matches have given her new team...
