...ordered a large pizza with artichoke hearts from Pizza-A-Go-Go. I hadn’t seen Shakespeare in Love (rated R!) in theaters because I was under 17, so she rented it from Blockbuster and we munched on stone-fired dough while watching Joseph Fiennes woo the pre-pregnancy Gwyneth Paltrow, climbing up to her window and unraveling her strange linen corset. The next morning, my mom and I slept in until 10:00 a.m. After we had both meandered down to the kitchen, we decided that it would be a shame to let what was left...

Why memorize the words to a Kappa Kappa Gamma (Kappa) song when you could be networking your way to Morgan Stanley through Smart Women Securities? Yet every February about 150 girls—smart, modern, and mostly freshman—begin the process of rushing Harvard’s three sororities. The recruitment...

...industrious lot here at Harvard. Only 17 percent of students choose to spend their summer vacations actually on vacation. Throughout the fall, sophomores and juniors travel to New York for pre-recruiting events hosted by large financial services firms, with hopes of gaining an edge over other applicants. As deadlines approach, the interviewees’ waiting room at The 1414 becomes the most stressful and unfriendly place in Cambridge by a long shot. Pre-professional groups have huge campus memberships, even among freshmen, contemplating careers before they’ve chosen a concentration...

...avoids preachiness and hones in on the humor of a typically dramatic situation. Though I have no outstanding problem with this model, I found Ellen Page’s portrayal of this character unbearable on a fundamental level.This idea of a cynical old lady in the body of a pre-pubescent looking, 16-year-old girl is simply not funny in the context of “Juno.” I’m sure people grinned at the big screen when witty little Juno delivered one blasé retort after another, but while they found it cute...

...including the Hornets, in a post-Katrina New Orleans faces challenges. New Orleans was already the second-smallest NBA market before the storm; now, with 600,000 TV households in the metropolitan area, it's the smallest. About 300,000 people live within the city, just 66% of the pre-Katrina population of 455,000, and the local economy still hasn't rebounded...
