...record, didn’t even get a whiff of the national playoffs. It is simplistic to reduce the Ivy powerhouses’ recent reclamations to the return of their Olympians, who missed last season to participate in the Winter Games in Turin, Italy. Yet it is impossible to overlook the importance of these stars, three on the Crimson’s side and four on the Big Green’s, in energizing two of the country’s best statistical offenses and elevating the play of those around them. Four of these talents dot the listing...
...season, we believe that now is the perfect time to reflect on the state of life at Harvard and to take note of what can be done better. At Harvard, many of us ultimately aim to change the world.

My only critique is that the crust was a bit tough, a flaw that I was willing to overlook by virtue of its golden butteriness. My friend had a latte and a Whoopie cake: the classic chocolate cupcake filled with vanilla cream. I snuck a taste of the chocolate ganache frosting when he wasn’t looking and just about melted with joy. When I went back on Saturday afternoon to speak...
