...able to prevent the Crimson from realizing its goal of improving on its disappointing play two weeks ago. The team used that outing as a source of motivation and came together as a group. “Practices have been going really well, and it showed in the result,” Shore said. “The last two weeks have been the best practices in my career, and I’m really happy with the results.” Shore and sophomore Nick Moseley, who had a memorable day, competed in the tournament as individuals, meaning their...
...University Hall contacted the UC leadership to raise concerns that the UC Party Fund, which provides $1,750 per week in funding to support parties open to all undergraduates, was being used to fund alcohol purchases and, more specifically, underage drinking. Talks between the UC and the College deans resulted in several modifications to the grant process, including an expedited grant application process so that Houses could be notified earlier of impending parties, approval by House administrators that grant recipients were over 21, and checkboxes on the application form that alcohol would be served by students 21 or older...
...catch: Try getting those same 10 people into a room to decide precisely what every educated person ought to know. Try it! There will be no agreement.

But within those categories, there were limited choices, and students were free...
...unconventional forms of activism are the way to get elected prom queen, she ought to take a closer look at this campus. Coggins also assumed that the goal of activism is to initiate dialogue amongst Harvard students. What a wonderful world it would be if all progress were the result of Crimson op-eds (or better yet, truly rational discourse). Unfortunately, sometimes it takes concrete action to achieve actual results. Yet to Coggins, the opinions of her and her peers, not the wages of Harvard workers or funds raised to combat deadly infections, form the barometer by which success...
...stronger position to press for its terms than North Korea was. North Korea is an economic basket case with nukes; Iran doesn't yet have nukes, but it is one of the world's top five oil exporters, and its regional influence has grown exponentially as a result of the removal of two of its key enemies, Saddam Hussein and the Taliban, and by virtue of its defiance of the U.S. In short, Iran is far from desperate to deal right now, and it would be inclined to make Washington pay an even higher political price than...
