...Ideas,” that paltry paragraph nonetheless holds to key to one of Harvard’s most overlooked arts programs.Offered to an ever-increasing number of students on significant financial aid, the SEF provides free tickets to any student-produced event sold through the Harvard Box Office (HBO). Founded in 2002 by former Undergraduate Council (UC) Presidents Paul A. Gusmorino ’02 and Rohit Chopra ’04, and M.

Rudolph says he gets 60 channels, including music-radio stations and local news. A special prison channel offers educational shows, courses in anger management and a smorgasbord of religious programs dealing with faiths ranging from Catholicism to the Nation of Islam and even Asatru, the ancient Norse religion favored by Aryan supremacists...
