...absurd that Americans have this idea that there's a small number of schools that are the "best places" for engineers or doctors or architects or teachers. The fact is, a lot of students change their major during college. The name on the gate is not the important thing. It's what the student puts into it and whether he or she finds challenging professors...
...Should you decide to visit Mather or the Quad, the exotic locales that throw most of the legitimate House parties on campus, you’ll want to use the shuttles. They leave from outside Lamont (Mather), Boylston Gate (the Quad), and behind Annenberg (both). On weekends and after midnight on weekdays, shuttles can take you all the way from Dunster to Pfoho, stopping at most of the useful points in between. When riding that late night bus with 50 other partygoers (watch out for vomit!), be grateful that the College decided against a plan to drastically reduce shuttle service...
...Need a break from high-priced boutiques and Free Tibet protesters in the Square? Or are you craving an all-American, consumerist experience?

...concert. The names are blacked out in the report. According to the report, the organizer "together with Jackson's management is willing to build the stage at such a height that it is not visible from Unter den Linden" - the boulevard on the eastern side of the Brandenburg Gate - "and to position the speakers appropriately." The plan also involved broadcasting the Jackson concert in a stadium in East Berlin with a two-minute delay, so the East Germans could replace the live performance with a videotape of a previous performance should Jackson make any undesirable political comments...
