...will now work with professors to make better use of electronic resources. In the past, students have paid twice for the copyright to some course materials, once in their termbills to pay for the library’s access to electronic resources, and once when they purchase a course pack, which can carry a hefty price tag. Next semester, materials in the Ec 10 sourcebook will be linked to online, where they are available to students at no additional charge. The sourcebook, which was singled out in the UC’s report, costs $60. UC Student Affairs Committee Chair...

If Caldwell is discouraged by the public impression of Christians, she might lead by example. “To the least of these” (Matthew 25:40) was Mother Theresa?...
...because of Ivy League standards, it offers zero athletic scholarships. It has won a number of NCAA championships—just take a look at the historic run the fencing team made this year—but seems to be mired in the middle of the national pack in many of the major sports.And finally, the school recruits some of the nation’s top athletes, but until they make an impact on the field, court, track, or ice, they seldom come up during breakfast-table discussions. Our feature today notwithstanding, they too rarely show up in the pages...
