...right corner of the net, putting the Crimson up, 3-1.On the defensive side, Kessler made nine saves in the first period. The junior left the game after the first frame, replaced by senior Brittany Martin.“[Kessler] got banged up, and we just wanted to be safe,” Stone said. “[Martin] was ready to go, and she did a great job.”Harvard came out in the second, still riding its wave of momentum. At 4:26, on another power-play opportunity, junior Cori Bassett sent a pass to Vaillancourt...
...Portnuff has documented that listening to earbuds, or in-ear headphones, for 90 minutes a day at 80% volume is probably safe for long-term hearing - a useful cutoff point to keep in mind.

Institutions should create a safe environment where that kind of exploration can be fostered. That doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be a critical assessment of the quality of that suspicion, because not all of it is equal. For me, the arts is all about taking risks and pushing the boundaries...
