...remain open during the January period, but said that the College would consider this issue after it decides which students will be allowed to stay on campus. She added that Annenberg will be the only dining hall open during the period. There are also no plans to charge lower room and board fees for students who will not be allowed to stay on campus for the two weeks in January, Hammonds said. The idea for a J-Term was first suggested by a 2003 committee charged with reevaluating the current University calendar, a group chaired by Professor Sidney Verba...
...peer universities. Yale’s Battell Chapel recently lost its affiliation with the United Church of Christ and reaffirmed its ecumenical role. University Chapel at Princeton similarly offers ecumenical services on Sundays. Dartmouth’s Rollins Chapel is an explicitly interfaith space, with a Muslim prayer room off the main transept.

About 15 people lined up on the "dock" (really, a front porch) and helped us clamber from our boat over theirs and into their one-room home. There wasn't much dialogue between the groups, given that none of the tourists spoke Khmer and our hosts didn't know English, but there was much smiling and cooing at the babies, one of whom was cooling off in a pot of water. We ate stir-fried veggies...
