...transferred to Harvard last spring, so maybe I was late to discover this particular bureaucratic tangle. I had first heard about the add/drop fee two weeks into my first semester here. But many students I’ve talked to either don’t realize there is a fee or don’t understand why it exists. The practice of charging students when they add or drop classes seems both financially unnecessary and potential harmful to students’ academic decisions; Harvard should not penalize its students for changing their schedules after an arbitrarily chosen Monday. If regulations...
...you’ve probably heard that the world as we know it is spiraling out of control, and no one—not even Savior-In-Chief President Obama—knows what to do. Everyone, from salt-of-the-Earth Middle Americans, to class of 2006 Harvard economics graduates, is losing his job.

Though it slightly builds cohesion as it goes along, the album lacks much substance or integrity. “200 Million Thousand” is as contradictory as the “flower punk” mantra, featuring tediously rebellious punk-rock anthems with several truly genre...
...With “Tight Knit” Vetiver is leaving the dark, comfortable environs of the forest and setting off into the new territory of the night sky. The result is a less consistently redolent and distinctive but more exciting and sociable collection of songs than we have heard from Vetiver before. Bandleader and songwriter Andy Cabic plays all of the instruments on many of the tracks, and without any of the clearly discernible collaborations of previous Vetiver records—Banhart, Joanna Newsom, Hope Sandoval—“Tight Knit” comes across very much...
