Harvard junior forward Andre Akpan has been named as a semifinalist for the Hermann Trophy, the most prestigious individual award in Division I men’s soccer. This is the second year in a row that the junior has been named one of the top 15 players nationally in collegiate soccer.

He became a more public presence, taking questions from the press three days in a row. He named his economic team. He promised an enormous stimulus package that would somehow create 2.5 million new jobs, and began to maneuver the new Congress toward having the bill ready for him to sign - in a dramatic ceremony, no doubt - as soon as he assumes office...
