...Russian musical duo is teaching three master classes to the five undergraduate members of the Lowell House Society of Russian Bell Ringers. Their visit is the result of a long saga centered on the acquisition of the bells now in Lowell. The 18 bells in the tower originally hung in the Danilov Monastery, but were purchased by philanthropist Charles R. Crane and given to Harvard in 1930 to save them from the possibility of destruction under Stalinist rule.

In 2002, when two U.S soldiers accidentally ran over two schoolgirls with a tank north of Seoul, anti-American sentiment was widespread in Korea. Some restaurants even hung signboards reading "No Americans" rather than "No Soldiers Allowed."
