...phone interview, recalling these details from his hotel in Kathmandu, Nepal.The man was 50-year-old Australian mountaineer Lincoln Hall. He was suffering from High Altitude Cerebral Edema caused by low levels of oxygen. Hall had summited the day before, but had started acting delusional on the descent. Hall??s Tibetan guides tried for nine hours to bring him down the mountain, but gave up when he became too disoriented and resistant to their efforts. The guides left him at 8700 meters (28,543 feet) at 7:20 p.m. that evening when he became still...
...December, as campus groups quivered with trepidation, we viewed University Hall??s plans to convert the upper floors of the Hilles Building into an unprecedented amount of student-group space through rosier-hued glasses.

Godlewski said he was excited about Hall??s new role. “She has been a great help,” he said. Godlewski added that with Hall as the new chief instructor, the club would be seeking to increase its undergraduate membership. Faust said that Hall was a major reason why he agreed...
...denied funding to officially recognized Harvard student organizations, most notably the Asian American Christian Fellowship (AACF), which requires its officers to be Christians, and single-sex a cappella singing groups, which require their members to be of a particular sex. Even though these organizations have passed muster with University Hall??s Committee on College Life (CCL), which vets student groups for official College recognition, the UC has sometimes insisted that they not be funded because of the discrimination written into their constitutions...
