With this money, Harvard could hire clean-up crews, as well as reimburse students for dry cleaning bills, shoe shines, and Lysol...
After a two-year study of UCLA buildings, the committee rated 15 buildings as "very poor," which means they would incur extensive damage in a major earthquake. Most were built before...

He wouldn't have to stay at the Hyatt Regency, either...
