...Another important consideration in the early stages of the Allston project has been Harvard’s emphasis on sustainability. Although Harvard’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact reaches back several years, its most progressive measure by far came this past October in an agreement on environmental standards, in which Harvard pledged to abide by a strict cap on greenhouse gas emissions at 50 percent below the national standards.

The federal intervention could weaken current state laws and undo the accomplishments of New York State Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo...

The freshman from Geneseo, Ill. made a resounding impact on Harvard cross country and track this season with his ability to compete near the top in almost every competition he participated in. “[Dan’s] been one of many newcomers to really change the culture of the program,” head coach Jason Saretsky said.
