...Kilmer himself brings it up. As part of his new business plan, the usually press-averse Kilmer is going on the offensive to repair his image, which he says has been created by the media because of the eccentric roles he has taken, the fact that he is a Method actor or because he lives far from Hollywood on a 6,000-acre ranch near Santa Fe, N.M., with more than 100 animals. But now, he says, he can't take the abuse anymore. "It's like being a black man and being called a n_____," he says, kind...
...hard, at least in the short term, to convince the College or the President’s Office that HoCos are in fact some of the soundest ways to invest in student life on campus.In the meantime, HoCos should be looking for innovative ways to raise funds. One surefire method would be to tap into alumni giving to Houses. Some HoCos already use trusts to pay for hugely expensive House events like the Lowell Bacchanalia.

...examination is in fact worthwhile and well-designed. But inherent problems are certain to remain. In particular, GRE writing section grades are notoriously correlated with essay length. The Princeton Review GRE preparation book admits this trend and even advises test-takers to strategize accordingly. This ill-conceived scoring method will be counterbalanced, however, by a new policy of sending, along with scores, the writing samples themselves to graduate school admissions committees, who can evaluate their quality more adeptly than GRE graders. Prospective graduate school students have reason to rejoice at most of the changes to the GRE slated...
