...again. Maybe an attempt to escape the monochrome colors of barren Cambridge?... Our designer suggested that the public embraces American Beauty because it makes them think they're thinking when they're really not thinking at all. (I would compare it to Salman Rushdie or The English Patient. The latter is a terrible, thuddingly boring movie. And no, it wasn't intelligent. Just because people speak with a British accent doesn't mean they're intelligent.)... Speaking of which, why are pseudo-accents popping up all over Harvard? If I hear one more fake British accent that falls away when...

There are a lot of teen singers around these days, but unfortunately there aren't many teen vocalists. At 16, Alecia Elliott, judging by her debut album, deserves the latter, loftier title.
