...students in the past four years, reducing its enrollment almost by half. Harvard's enrollment for its Master of Divinity program is also down. Yale Divinity School has had its university subsidy cut from $300,000 a year to $30,000, mandating the school's recent merger with the well-endowed (though ailing) Berkeley Divinity School in New Haven...
That is what many people have believed since the "merger" occured. The assumption is totally unfounded. From the day of Missner's surprise announcement, the Phoenix staff has for the most part maintained its solidarity under a new name--The Real Paper--and only one member of the old staff, columnist George Kimbell, has seen fit to move his writing to The Boston Phoenix.

...Hagopian pending a trial. In his 18-page decision, Brieant noted that almost half of Hagopian's demerits were reported by his company's tactical officer, who then awarded the demerits and finally determined whether the demerits were correct, without Hagopian ever receiving a fair hearing. "Such merger of prosecutorial and judicial function [in a case leading to expulsion]," Brieant said, "does not satisfy due process or the simple needs of natural justice." West Point said it would obey orders...
