...insist, control of the curriculum should rest only with tenured professors, the most accomplished scholars in a given field. This should largely continue to be the case. But in many fields, lecturers teach longstanding curricula—such as in introductory mathematics—or deftly tweak them to fit their own needs—such as in expository writing. After all, Harvard already allows preceptors to serve as primary instructors in the foreign languages, mathematics, and expository writing. There exists no plausible defense for not keeping the best ones around for as long as possible.A college is more than...

Just a few words from the Professor on the true nature of "spirit" would send any sixth grader into a fit of giggles. The reading varies from the light (Chaucer on flatulence) to the heavy (George Herbert on God), and the reading load is very well-paced. While the course does fulfill a Lit and Arts core, the majority of the people in the class are Humanities majors, which makes...
...they have received fewer maintenance calls for clogged toilets since the low-flow toilets have been installed, and they may consider making all toilets dual-flush in the future. “We’re going to keep an eye on how they go because we can retro-fit the existing low-flow toilets with the dual handle for $25 per toilet. If it’s advantageous we’ll do that.” —Staff writer Evan M. Vittor can be reached at evittor@fas.harvard.edu...
