...that pattern of categorization that makes possible the approval of drugs like Bidil, a heart failure drug that became the first U.S. medication to be approved and marketed expressly for black people, in 2005. But after approval, a deeper look at the research showed that clinical trials of Bidil - a combination of two generic heart drugs - involved only self-described African Americans, and that the drug was not useful for all blacks and very useful for some whites.

In reality, most proctors are actually softies at heart. Enjoy the dorm-wide gathering that follows—it’s probably one of the few organized social events worth going to as Harvard freshman.

Throughout the era when South Korea was effectively ruled by the military, Kim was its most active and prominent dissident. He came within 1 million votes of upsetting then President Park Chung Hee in an election in 1971, after which Park amended the constitution and turned South Korea into a one-party police state. In 1973 government agents - with Park's assent - kidnapped and apparently planned to kill Kim. The U.S. government...
