...about Harvard's calendar. Just because most other colleges in the country schedule finals before Christmas doesn't make it right; but when your own students are unhappy then maybe it's time to change. I earnestly hope, for everyone's sake, that the faculty will exercise wisdom and judgement by subordinating its self-interest to the wishes of the students. Michael Korn...
