The Boston police had issued trespassing citations at five different sleep-out protests last fall, where SJSF members pushed for the Massachusetts State Legislature to introduce a bill for 100 percent clean energy...

The College’s approval process sends the message that studying two fields is inherently more suspect than studying one. Even worse, some fields, such as economics, apparently have no way to integrate with other subject areas—or so the College would have us think...
