...ball for the Crimson, and Winters occasionally caught Holy Cross off-guard with designed quarterback run plays and improvised scrambles. But for the most part, the Crusaders kept Harvard’s ground game in check. On defense, the Crimson had trouble breaking through a stalwart Holy Cross offensive line, and while the Harvard defensive backs played solidly, even the tiniest of openings was enough for Randolph to thread the needle and hit his intended receiver.In the end, it came down to Winters vs. Randolph. David vs. Goliath.And for a moment, it appeared that the underdog might pull it out.Nearly...
Still, we were curious about the particular decision to bring in JP Licks as opposed to all the other options Harvard might have explored. The statements from university real-estate officials who claimed that encouraging JP Licks to come into the Square was in line with their “commitment to local businesses that bring a unique and quality product” seemed odd.

A child in a single-parent family, for instance, is five times as likely to live below the poverty line. What Cancian and Reed try to illustrate, though, is that replicating marriage wouldn't necessarily generate more per-person wealth. "There are reasons some people don't get married - they don't have the same options," says Cancian. Marrying someone who is chronically unemployed -or incarcerated - might very well not be an economic step...
