That measure was also unsuccessful, but Zuckerberg said he and other opponents of the addition still resent the way club leaders handled the expansion...
...Iraq, says, "We have not established convincingly that there is national-level leadership directing this low-intensity conflict."

Mather House and Peabody Terrace, with their imposing grey concrete exteriors, are two legitimate reasons for Harvard’s neighbors to resent the University. Area residents and the city council deserve an opportunity to critique new designs to insure that no more monstrosities join their neighborhood...
