...Researchers sorted the seniors into three broad categories based on the frequency of their church attendance. The subjects were also monitored for lung health based on their performance in a series of breathing tests over a period of approximately five years. The study used the peak expiratory flow rate—the amount of air a person exhales in one minute—as the benchmark for assessing lung health. This rate normally declines with age, though the study shows that avid churchgoers experience about half the rate of decline as those who did not attend church. Lead author...
...Vaidya G. Rajagopalan ’08, proclaiming love for Lord Krishna. The singers, seemingly effortlessly, weaved together their three voices, and produced a unified sound.

I strongly believe that in institutions of higher learning there ought to be a place for courses that excite the mind, and that enhance our appreciation of how we came to be and of our place on the planet...
...cover an annual $75 million deficit. Cutting funding for the College’s recent student-focused initiatives, however, would be unwise. From renovations of student space to increased investment in peer advising, students have secured big gains in recent years. But that depends entirely on the continued flow of cash. For example, the wages of a dean of advising, a fun czar, and 180 peer advisors are not trivial costs, but they must not be cut. Knowles, the next president, and the next dean of the Faculty—all of whom control the College’s budget...
