...brand new, state-of-the-art, 500,000-square foot science complex will be the first seed of Harvard’s new campus in Allston. If all goes according to plan, it will eventually be joined by new athletics facilities, undergraduate houses, space for culture and the arts, two professional schools, and many more academic buildings.

If transportationin either direction—by shuttle, foot, or bike—is inconvenient, the Allston campus will suffer...

The story of how two American collectors, Egisto Fabbri and Charles Loeser, introduced the Post-Impressionist's art to Italy, and how it influenced painters there, "could have been a film," says 19th century art scholar Francesca Bardazzi.
