...follows a black, female elevator inspector during a time of racial integration. Cameron Leader-Picone, a graduate student in the African-American Studies Department whose dissertation includes a chapter on Whitehead, says, “‘The Intuitionist’ was really big coming out of the gate. It became a major novel immediately.

Kirkland House, for example, only allows students to use the space by appointment, while Winthrop and Eliot...
...years later, Andrea was on the cover of TIME (the first U.S. skier to be so honored) the month before she competed in the Oslo Olympics. She won the giant slalom, but it's her slalom victory that still amazes me today. In her first run, she missed a gate and had to backtrack to go through. She finished that run in fourth place.
