...Making this cut, which would save the state about $14 million, is painful but necessary. Already, each of the 29 public colleges has a chancellor who manages their own school. By eliminating the office that is most removed from directly effecting students, the governor has made education cuts as painless as possible to the state’s students...
...shuffling over to the next table. Salsa dancing and games (tarot cards, anyone?) are also on offer. Daters mark their card if they find someone interesting, and if the attraction is mutual the pair can swap e-mails later. For those who don't connect, three minutes is (relatively) painless.

...students who do not live in the greater Boston area, it is incredibly impractical, inconvenient and expensive to make it home after mid-Wednesday. While members of the administration might have a quick and painless commute to their nearby homes, students from all over the country—and the world—are forced to chose between missing classes and seeing family for the first time in months. Additionally, many students who wished to travel on Wednesday left early, this year, for fear that poor weather would cause flight delays and dangerous traffic conditions—a common Thanksgiving...
