...want to thank TIME for writing an unbiased review of Floortime and ABA. Too many articles prop up one approach over the other without giving an honest summary of both. I work within both models as a special-education teacher. Your article highlights the pros and cons of each in a fair, unbiased way. The goal is to choose what works for an individual child. Many, many children benefit from both models simultaneously or at different times in their childhood. Treatment is not a competition between ideas; it is a matter of finding what works at a particular moment with...
...would-be Harvardians eager to study engineering; the need to complement new multidisciplinary initiatives in the sciences with a world-class engineering program; and, most importantly, the aspiration to work toward the first two aims without sacrificing Harvard College’s liberal arts mission. To be perfectly honest, I’m not sure how this can best be accomplished.Harvard could eliminate engineering as an undergraduate concentration, and focus the new school’s efforts on world-class graduate programs, but doing so would deprive the College of vital exposure to an important field of inquiry...

Engineers, he notes, had to start construction before finishing the designs in hopes of beating the first storm. Though they'll miss the deadline, he says, "there is really little risk [from hurricanes] in June." Just in case, the Corps has a backup plan: pilings already stacked at the scene can be driven into the canal bed to stop storm surges--a job that would take three days to complete in the "worst case," Setliff promises. That plan, put into effect along Lake Pontchartrain...
...will take these into consideration so that the students will not be hurt by my mistake,” he said last night. But though some students said they had been pressed for time, most took it in stride. “I’m going to be honest. Any time you get the opportunity to take an exam that’s shorter than it was originally going to be, that’s nothing but positive,” said Raquel O. Alvarenga ’07, who used the extra hour to study after pulling...
