Jane Austen once described her own novels as etchings on a square inch of ivory, rather than canvases to dominate a room. That strategy, it seems, could only help the vast majority of Harvard novelists...

The campus is completely wired with a computerized communications system; by fall the heat in a dozen of Brown's 125 main buildings will be controlled room-by-room, minute-by-minute and degree-by-degree. Expected savings: at least $350,000 a year. Brown's computerized meal-planning system predicts student choices and the number of desired portions and matches these with the best food prices. The savings: more than $100,000 in the past couple of years. Up-to-date information...
