...radically altered conditions, sharp change, and formidable obstacles.” These words could serve as a first draft for outgoing University President Lawrence H. Summers’ final address. Much like Summers, Pusey was criticized for his rigid leadership style. The president of Union College, Harold C. Martin, once called Pusey “obdurate”, but Pusey said he preferred the term “intractable.” In addition to his stodginess, Pusey was heavily criticized for his inability to control student unrest after the 1969 University Hall sit-in, and the Harvard Corporation turned...
...just published a book titled Our Underachieving Colleges, which follows a similarly downbeat book in 2003. One of the Harvard deans pushed out by Summers has a book about the university coming out soon called Excellence Without a Soul. The new book by former Princeton president Harold Shapiro is called A Larger Sense of Purpose--implying that universities don't have one. Why the pessimism about institutions that would seem to be thriving? The success of big universities and their malaise are connected. They serve an array of constituencies that want--and get--profoundly different things from them...
...herself "completely sucked into" her research on the war. "I thought that actually what's interesting here for me is not where the characters are going, but what's happened to them." Besides, she's always been intrigued by backward narratives, such as Martin Amis' Time's Arrow and Harold Pinter's Betrayal. She'd considered using the form for an earlier novel but "it got too complicated. [For Night Watch] it suddenly made sense." Waters maintains her trademark plot-twisting - the full connections between some of the characters aren't revealed until the reader meets them...
...including M&M’s, is already rushing to fill that niche. Mars recently debuted a new brand of chocolate snacks called Cocoavia, which is advertised to be high in flavonols, according to the Mars website. Mars sponsored Hollenberg’s research and its Chief Science Officer Harold Schmitz co-authored the study. HMS Assistant Professor of Medicine Naomi D. Fisher, who has published similar research on flavonol with Hollenberg in the past, said that while flavonol is good for the heart, it is not a preferable alternative to losing weight or quitting smoking. “None...
...While Ganges and The Fountain may share similar themes, they do not share a similar look. Huizenga's drawing style doesn't remotely echo that of Kent Williams. Huizenga takes his cues from the likes of Harold Gray's "Little Orphan Annie," where simplified characters with dots for eyes live in pared-down environments. Touching on the Sunday comics as it does, Huizenga's artwork carries with it a sense of whimsy, while the single blue tone brings depth to the frames and gives them a cool atmosphere. The only point of comparison between the artists' styles is their...
