...series about the Bush dynasty, and then I had this amazingly good trip to Hawaii where I met [onetime psychic spy] Glenn Wheaton, who told me about Project Jedi and training U.S. soldiers to reach Level 2 - "Intuition" - then Level 3 - "Invisibility," which I thought was such a great leap. Level 1 is, like, eat only nuts and grains for a month, and Level 3 is invisibility? It was the greatest interview of my life. All I had to do was say, "What's Level 4?" And he goes, "Level 4 is, we can kill a goat just by staring...

...Glee and High School Musical is like comparing apples and pineapples because both are fruits. While the HSM franchise is built around the preppy, perky and preposterous perspective of the "average American high school," Glee seeks to poignantly tackle social issues like teen pregnancy, sexuality and infidelity.

...after that demoralizing tour through the Courses of Instruction, I took a leap of faith and enrolled in Social Studies. Over the subsequent semesters, I’ve combined courses in social and political theory with the sporadic environmental offerings of other social science and humanities departments. In this way, I cobbled together a concentration that more or less worked for me. Now, looking back over my Harvard experience, I’m happy, but I fear I’m an exception. Without sufficient courses, or a clear track or concentration to follow, Harvard students with nonscientific environmental interests...
