...joint [concentration].” Both the faculty and the concentrators are described as eager and supportive. For Yuri Vendenyapin ’04, the love affair with NELC began two years ago when he ate breakfast with Peretz Professor of Yiddish Literature Ruth R. Wisse at Au Bon Pain. “She really made a strong impression,” he says. “I am mostly interested in Yiddish studies and that’s what attracted me to Harvard and NELC.

...another study of cancer patients, at Harvard Medical School, nearly 75% of the subjects did not understand that the trial was investigating a treatment that was not standard. Two-thirds said they did not know they might face additional pain or discomfort. Says Annas: "These trials involve a great deal of mutual self-deception.
