...Undergraduate Council (UC) passed its final grants package of the semester and appointed a technology coordinator in a brief hour-long meeting last night. The council’s 10th grants package allocated $15,437 to 64 campus organizations, including $290 to the Asian Baptist Student Koinonia for Friday night bible study. In late November, the council voted to suspend its bylaws and award a grant to the Asian American Christian Fellowship (AACF) despite the group’s constitution, which stipulates that its executive board members be Christian.

For those who are too delicate to use public transportation I offer another solution: have the UC set up a system to coordinate cab sharing, allowing groups of four to get to the airport easily for about $8.9. The “Green Cup” Award. I certainly support energy...
...plays on an uncharacteristically wide ice surface. Although all of the returning Harvard players have played on the rink during the regular season and at the Frozen Four last season, the Wildcats are much more accustomed to their home ice. To top it off, Harvard must make the three-hour trip to Durham just three days before the start of exam period in Cambridge...
