Chuck Frasers's article, "Coming Out: A Gay Student's Experience at Harvard", represents the greatest act of courage and personal integrity that I have ever seen reflected on the pages of The Crimson.

...away with the head-aches that the sun caused in days before. The Arctic sun.--penetrating, intense--seems not so much to shine as to strike.
