Harvard style, try as we might, is hard to pin down—so we decided to pin up these nine undergrad fashion mavens instead. Let their style speak for itself. Kate E. Condon...
...your book calls for more open international disagreement. It often ends up in self-delusion if, with a great power, you don't take arguments head-on. I don't think Britain ended up influencing the Bush Administration on Iraq one jot. We were simply a sort of multilateral pin to stick in the Administration's lapel. Europe's relationship with the U.S. is fundamentally strong enough for us to disagree. Had we set out where we thought things were mistaken, it might have emboldened American critics of the policy.

This isn’t the responsibility of any individual. You certainly can’t pin it on sophomore quarterback Liam O’Hagan. After all, he was the architect of the Crimson’s two dramatic comebacks earlier this year and has since lost his top three receivers. You can’t point at junior tailback Clifton Dawson either. Sure...
