Another grievance I have with this year’s changes to the dining halls, although not directed at HUDS in general, is the presence of the flat-screen televisions. Whose brilliant idea was it to put the generously donated TV’s in their current—and utterly useless—position inside the serving areas? Oh, right. The Harvard College Consulting Group (HCCG).

...Fighting the Fiscal Fix It's not often that I agree with michael Kinsley, but his Essay opposing a fiscal stimulus was a winner [Feb. 4].
