...Although they are from different backgrounds, Onie's cohorts all proudly call themselves punks - a name first coined 30 years ago. His gang must be one of the last anywhere in the world to use the term today, and stepping inside Movement Records is to walk into a shrine to another era. Posters and stickers of their heroes - bands from the 1970s such as the Sex Pistols, the Ramones and the Clash - adorn every inch of wall space. "Punk is about freedom," says Onie. "People can choose what they want to do and what they want...

A Yalie who clumsily attempted to steal our flag was manhandled by a gang of Harvard cheerleaders. And while the Harvard halftime show involved beheading and dismembering a bulldog—perhaps not our best or most original idea, but an entertaining one nonetheless—Yale’s effort was downright quizzical. Amidst the nonsense, one thing was clear: Yale was portrayed...
...efforts of resistance during the calamity in Pakistan. We look forward to joining her in welcoming Chief Justice Chaudhry, who has risked his own well-being to protect the rule of democracy and law in Pakistan, to Cambridge in the near future.
