...with the distant and aloof tenure of Summers’ predecessor, Neil L. Rudenstine. As president of Harvard, Rudenstine was well-known for increasing the university’s endowment. That’s it. His presence at the freshman barbecue in the fall of 2000 served only to highlight his complete absence from campus life throughout the rest of that year. He merely made token appearances at home football games; whether he stayed past half-time—or even arrived before it— is anyone’s guess. Even during the Living Wage...
...desperate attempts by the hawks in the Bush Administration to link Saddam Hussein to al-Qaeda only highlight the fact that an invasion of Iraq would have nothing to do with the war on terrorism [World, Sept. 2]. The hawks have been calling for the invasion of Iraq ever since the Gulf War; the difference now is that they are cynically exploiting the tragedies of Sept. 11. An invasion would only increase the threat of terrorism by inflaming hatred of the U.S. and diverting attention from al-Qaeda. BRIAN CLUGGISH San Diego...

A short stroll can take you to the Japanese garden or the pet cemetery, a lovely if slightly surreal highlight. If you have a little more time, Powerscourt Waterfall, the highest in Ireland, is just three miles away...

Guests are, quite literally, out in the middle of the desert here, a short drive (or camel ride) from the remote Rum village where the nearest, albeit scant, provisions for tourists are sold. Accommodation is provided in basic but functional tents with twin beds. More pleasant sleeping arrangements...
It’s not Morris’ team merely because his highlight reel is longer than Braveheart, though he certainly had his share of ridiculously athletic and acrobatic plays against the Crusaders. Take your pick of Morris’ 60-yard, fingertip touchdown grab or his unbelieveable red-zone catch of a Rose pass that was deflected by Holy Cross defender David Mitchell. Or, if you are a fan of trickery and style, consider Morris’ back-pedaling TD reception from sophomore wideout Rodney Byrnes...
