...rate for the 2006-2007 academic year will cover $834,010. The meeting is the first of two planned discussions before the sub-committee will report to the CHL with a proposal aimed at solving what the Student Affairs Committee of the Undergraduate Council (UC) has characterized as a flagship issue.

But inside the Dolce & Gabbana flagship store on Via della Spiga, the mood is frantic, with shoppers young and old slapping down credit cards for the label's signature $2,900 pin-striped pantsuits and $3,500 fur-trimmed coats.
