...nothing says Harvard like the Wu-Tang Clan. In his 2001 film How High, Clan member Method Man smokes marijuana fertilized by the ashes of his dead friend in order to ace his entrance exam and score admission to Harvard College, setting an excellent example for prospective applicants everywhere. Wu-Tang lyrics are filled with culturally astute allusions, perfect for Harvard eggheads (i.e., “Socrates’ philosophies and hypotheses / Can’t define how I be droppin’ these mockeries”). Other verses address issues salient to Harvard students, like the Mather residents...

He shows clips of ordinary people continuing with their regular lives while traumatic events like the Holocaust go on around them. “Most grownups know the statistics, they know history,” he said. “It?...

...Journalism, I dropped a class because I saw Samuel Richardson’s Clarissa on the syllabus, there was a lot of speaking in kung-fu-related code with my radio station cohorts, and a little disdain for those who could only name most-popular Wu-Tang members Method Man, Ghostface Killah, and ODB.But for this show, my fellow Harvard students are part of the pre-concert hype process. I can finally talk about Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) outside the warm, record-filled confines of WHRB’s studios in the basement of Pennypacker...
...Chief Justice John Roberts observed in his opinion that "some risk of pain is inherent in any method of execution," and held that the Constitution condemns only "substantial" or "objectively intolerable" risks. Six other justices shared the chief's conclusion that Kentucky's approach passed muster, but only two of them - Anthony Kennedy and Samuel Alito - were willing to sign the chief's blueprint for deciding how much risk is too much, which included the vague standard that challengers must show that there were alternatives that were "feasible" and "readily implemented" that would "significantly" reduce a risk of severe pain...
