...gouging, we encourage the perpetrating students to continue doing it. In the short term, savvy students will begin buying extra tickets to popular events that are guaranteed to sell out in the hopes of making a tidy profit every time a formal takes place. This is the most innocuous result, however. If these students, who almost certainly take pride in their financial acumen, have any political or business aspirations, they will eventually plague the broader community with their gouging methods. Given our current economic crisis and the recent impeachment of Illinois governor Rod R. Blagojevich (Senate seat: $500,000/OBO), there...
Bright young PhDs grinding through research may no longer see Harvard as the light at the end of the tunnel. As a result of the economic downturn, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences has cut its number of faculty searches from 50 to 21. We understand that in this difficult financial climate sacrifices need to be made. Nevertheless, impeding the College’s flow of intellectual resources is an unwise compromise...
...match for us, but Princeton is tough. It’s difficult to play back-to-back when we had such a hard one [Saturday against Penn].

...killings did have a measurable, positive impact, however: a revolution in product safety standards. In the wake of the Tylenol poisonings, pharmaceutical and food industries dramatically improved their packaging, instituting tamperproof seals and indicators and increasing security controls during the manufacturing process. The result has been a dramatic reduction in the number of copycat incidents - although it may be of little solace to the families of the seven killed in Chicago. But now, as the FBI brings modern technology to bear on a case long gone cold, perhaps they can hope again for something else tangible: at long last, some...
...carrying 6.6% to 8% fewer passengers in 2009, according to a new report by the Boyd Group. Airlines will respond to the decline by cutting capacity 10% - but if they don't raise fares now, they'll still lose an estimated $7 billion in revenue this year. Which could result in more add-on fees for travelers or fare hikes down the line. The Boyd group is not predicting a return to 2008 capacities until...
