...completed just last week and is scheduled to be published next year. The rest of his semester will go towards the preparation of journal articles and a grant proposal for the topics explored in his book. Bass Professor of Government Michael J. Sandel will also spend a good portion of his sabbatical at the keyboard. Sandel will pen two books—one related to the themes presented in his course on ethics and biotechnology, which he taught with Cabot Professor of the Natural Sciences Douglas Melton, and another on markets and morals. “The book tries...
...individuals. Andrei Shleifer, on the other hand, is infamous for his alleged improprieties in dealings with government contracts in Russia and his close relationship with former University President Lawrence H.

...fair, Krzyzewski deserves a smaller portion of the blame for the U.S. roster, which was primarily constructed by ex-Phoenix Suns owner Jerry Colangelo. But from the beginning the pair preached that they were partners, so if Krzyzewski didn't have final say over the players, he should have shouted louder: more shooters, please! During the Team USA meltdown in Athens, every weekend warrior with a backyard jump shot said, " Put me on the team!
