...over a quarter of a century that the admissions office has moved. The undergraduate admissions offices have occupied Byerly Hall since 1974 when the offices were still split in half between Harvard and Radcliffe College. Two years later, the Colleges admitted the Class of 1980—the first joint class of men and women, according to Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid William R. Fitzsimmons ’67.

Moscow and Beijing, it seems, have come a long way since the Cold War when, despite their common commitment to Communism, the two had a longstanding rivalry that was eagerly exploited by the U.S. Today, their strategic alliance is based first and foremost on doing business - China wants to increase its consumption of Russian oil and natural gas exports, and much of that growing Chinese defense budget about which Rice...
