Soon after, one of the metal structures falls, striking a Harvard student on the head. Sound familiar? It happened last year at Soldiers Field, leaving the student with minor skull lacerations. With that event so recent, it should not have come as that big a surprise when this year in New Haven, after another win, spectators again climbed the posts, bringing them down on a Harvard freshman and injuring her critically...
