...against the Golden Knights. After Clarkson established an early lead in the first period, Harvard was unable to get a shot past goaltender David Leggio, a problem that could resurface in Saturday’s contest, as Leggio has remained dominant throughout the season and currently holds the 11th-highest winning percentage in the nation at .676. Clarkson’s strength in the crease, coupled with the Crimson’s struggling offense, could be a recipe for disaster...
...when it comes to political participation, whether it’s at the polls or through protests, we are shockingly passive. Gone is the daring sense of activism that characterized our parents’ generation.

Without head coach Katey Stone behind the bench, the No. 3 Harvard women’s hockey rolled to its highest scoring victory of the season in an easy 7-0 win over Boston College at Bright Hockey Center last night.

That initiative is expected to parallel Harvard’s move last month to increase aid packages to students with family incomes from $120,000 to $180,000. Grassley, the highest Republican on the U.S. Senate’s Finance Committee, lauded Harvard’s initiative in December and again praised both universities’ aid expansions Monday, but expressed continued support for the five percent mandate, calling the proposal “reasonable.” But the legislation...
...chronically worried people are courting coronary problems, too, according to a new long-term study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Of 735 American middle-aged or elderly men who had good cardiovascular health in 1986, those who scored highest on four different scales of anxiety were far more likely to suffer heart attacks later in life. Men in the top 15% on any of the four scales, or on a combined scale of all four, had a 30% to 40% greater chance of heart...
