Despite financial woes, there is still a demand for Globe reporting. Of course, maintaining The Globe in its current format would be ideal, but preserving the paper...
Students seeking to work for the Q Guide this summer had their hopes dashed when Dean of Undergraduate Education Jay M. Harris announced last Thursday that the College will drastically alter the format of next year’s guide, eliminating the need for student involvement in the guide’s creation. In an e-mail sent to summer applicants last Thursday, Q Guide editor Charles C.
