...goes a long way in placing the timeless sentimentality of such a encounter in 1927. Wherever Earhart stops for fuel, the camera lingers in close-up on the children who greet her. Her feats inspired a nation in a way that modern figures rarely can, and the children she meets??including a young Gore Vidal—function as silent narrators of her story...

Harvard refused to replace the high-sulfur fuel with low-sulfur fuel—why shell out an additional $200/day when high-sulfur fuel already “meets?? regulations? It’s time for Harvard to do a little more than meet the minimum standards, since being so miserly means possible health hazards and barriers to studying for its students and employees.Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Harvard should lower housing costs for those affected...
