...Crimson (8-5) went 2-2, the team learned that it can control its own fate: the energy issue is only an energy problem when Harvard doesn’t have enough.“The theme on this trip is that the team with the most energy and hunger wins, no matter what the score, no matter who the opponent,” assistant coach Andrew Rueb ’95 said. “We’ve got to make sure we’re the ones bringing the fire.”The trip?...

During the hunger strike, during the Living Wage campaign [aimed at increasing wages for Harvard employees about a decade ago], during the divestment campaign, their reputation was at stake. As activists, that’s where we try to hit them. That’s why we’re in the middle of the quad, we’re sending press releases out to everyone, drawing attention to Harvard. Personally, I want to rid where I live of militarism...
