Extracurriculars bring a diversity into the student body as well as impart a certain diversity of experience. The path of academia, like any other future profession, is for a chosen few. Extracurriculars provide opportunities for many other students to do what they like and do well. They provide diversity in our own experiences so that life has more flavor than the daily bread and butter of lecture. All these activities do sap energy and time that could be used for academics, but that may be a fair price to pay for the good we receive. The administration should be glad...
...lending a hand was instinctive, closing the deal was closer to primal. Dole flew to Washington on Tuesday from Harvard, where he'd talked the deal over with--Who else?--former aide Sheila Burke. Following the path he'd taken a million times before, he went over to the Capitol, huddled behind the same ornate doors, took up a chair on a balcony overlooking the Mall. Dole expected criticism; Gingrich need not repay a cent for eight years, and since he's vowed to leave Congress after six, the Speaker will have plenty of time to raise...
...their role as working with industry to equip people for change." The same similarities surface when Blair talks about "rights and duties going together."

After months of resisting U.N. air evacuation of refugees on the grounds that it would disrupt troop movements, rebel leader Laurent Kabila made an abrupt turnaround Sunday and gave the U.N. just sixty days, starting May 1, to track down and evacuate every last refugee. After Sunday's maiden voyage carried just 40 refugees from Kisangani to their...
...Leverett tower windows looks out on the path linking Dunster and Mather with the rest of the world, a popular place for dog owners to walk their pets. Last Monday afternoon, I was taking a peaceful nap when suddenly a woman outside began shouting "No! Stop him! No, no, no!" Curious and concerned, I peered out and saw a large, mean-looking dog on top of a much smaller, furrier dog. Four men--several of whom appeared to be Harvard students--were pulling at the larger dog while the owner of the smaller animal stood by and screamed helplessly...
