...self-produced this album, but you worked very closely with Ryan Francesconi, who arranged the songs, and Neal Morgan who did the percussion. How much input did they have? They were there from the beginning. Ryan and Neal came to my house and we crawled through the songs bar by bar. We talked a lot about meaning and mood and thematic stuff, going into some awkward realms of discussions. I find it awkward to talk about song meaning.

The temporary program was approved because students who came to Harvard before 2007 did not have the chance to get the vaccine under their full insurance before arriving.

...subsidizing the cost of the vaccine, UHS had administered the full immunization series to 141 students and at least one shot to 403 other students; as of May 31, 1,126 students had been administered all three shots, with another 1,237 students having received at least one shot. Francesconi said that roughly 85 percent of the students immunized at UHS were covered under the University's Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance plan...
...Today, Francesconi said, a large number of the students who want immunization may be arriving on campus having already received the vaccine from pediatricians.

Some states are considering legislation that would require school-aged girls to get the vaccine...
...Francesconi said that she did not know if the number of vaccinated students would decrease after the subsidy's removal, but added that if Harvard were to subsidize any immunization permanently, the premium for the Student Health Plan would have to increase substantially. The subsidy for the HPV vaccine was estimated to have cost around $470,000, Francesconi said...
