...some themes, it appears, are eternal. We curled up together this weekend, my daughter and I, as I read Twilight for the first time, she for the third. It's not 19th century London, but the modern Pacific Northwest is appropriately misty. Here we meet the bright, chaste, passionate heroine Bella and the dark, mysterious and certainly dangerous hero Edward, son of a vampire family that has sworn off human blood but still struggles with the temptation.

...this field—just as we welcome any initiative that expands educational opportunities available to Harvard students. That said, the adoption of HDRB as an independent field of concentration must be done for the right reasons. At a liberal arts institution, importance alone is not sufficient to meet this threshold. There are several distinct fields of study which do not and should not qualify as independent concentrations, despite their importance...
Instead, proposed concentrations should be evaluated according to that field’s independence and breadth. To meet this threshold, a field of study should not be subordinate to any other field of study and should command a broad range and history of inquiry. Truly distinct fields of study satisfy both of these criteria, and only truly distinct fields of study should be adopted as concentrations. Most undergraduates have specialized interests within their fields of study—some physics concentrators might otherwise elect to “concentrate” in nuclear energy, for example, and some English concentrators...
