...foods obtained from fast-food restaurants, delicatessens and garbage bins are not as healthy. What sorts of lives do homeless people live? Wealth and stability--which the homeless lack--invite knowledge of and time for pursuing a healthier lifestyle. This means access to healthy food, appropriate health care and safe locations to exercise or relax. Hicks focuses his dull and uninformed contempt on a woman who can be assumed to lack these resources...

...went into the "Building a Safe Community" meeting during first-year orientation week desperately wanting to absorb all that I could. I tried to listen to the messages that the various peer-counseling groups presented and ignore the distractions of the two girls whispering in front of me and the guy next to me cracking his neck and smirking in between his sighs of boredom.

...difficult for most first-year women to envision themselves as victims of sexual violence in this community that is supposed to be a safe home for the next four years, but we must all face the reality of sexual violence in our society.

One person commented that the speakers needed to "talk to us more, be real and not make a joke of it." This University, which is supposed to be one of the best in the world, has no clear dedication to the serious issues affecting women undergraduates. Harvard University needs to take sexual violence seriously and address this problem by improving the education during first-year orientation week, increasing...

According to the EPA, Class-B municipal waste is safe for fertilizing crops and revegetating surface mines. But, says CDC senior industrial hygienist JOSEPH COCALIS, who talked to TIME not as a CDC spokesman but as a private citizen, "I personally would not want to eat food grown with human waste." The problem, Cocalis says, is that Class-B sludge is "biologically active" when dumped. The EPA places a 30-day restriction on public access, but pathogens can survive much longer. And surrounding dumps with earth mounds won't keep out trespassers like Tony Behun, 11, who died after riding...
