Asahara is expected to be indicted this week for murder and attempted murder. Police are also preparing to charge the guru on suspicion of ordering the first sarin-gas attack in June last year in Matsumoto, in central Japan, which killed seven and injured more than 200.

While the College has recently made much news in the tabloids with the acceptance and subsequent rejection of a killer and even more recently with the bizarre murder-suicide at Dunster House, an important administrative change has been hidden amidst the tumult. Over the course of the past few decades, the Harvard administration has succeeded in incrementally destroying the housing system.
