...corner kick opportunity. Sophomore Kwaku Nyamekye put the service on net, but it was deflected by Blue Devils goalie Paul Armstrong to Harvard co-captain Matt Hoff, open at the far post. From eight yards out, Hoff cranked the would-be game-tying shot. It flew past the diving CCSU defenders and snuck over Armstrong’s fingertips, but instead of swooshing into the back of the net the ball ricocheted off the underside of the crossbar and fell into traffic in front of the goal...
...professor Alan M. Dershowitz challenged Matory after his television appearance and Matory, ever an exemplar of the openness he so venerates, responded with the utmost maturity and aplomb.

On the UC’s e-mail list, representative Brian...

(Coppola has optioned the book.) He flew his private plane to Chicago to pick up Doniger, now a University of Chicago professor of Hinduism and comparative mythology, and bring her back to Napa to discuss her ideas with him and his wife Eleanor. Over the house wine and Coppola's cooking, they talked about his career...
