...read from his Baudelaire, “Les Fleurs Du Mal” (David Godine). He read at the gallery that hung the originals of Michael Mazur that were used as illustrations for that book. In full black attire, against a backdrop, he hissed the words over his shoulder at his audience in truly a sinister manner; it was very effective. Later, I met both again at a party hosted by a friend on Beacon Hill. Merrill was seated on a couch in the living room; Howard held court in the hallway. I was most definitely the oddity there...
...missed out on the opportunity to share similar experiences with his own father. He wasn’t about to be shortchanged a second time around.My siblings and I weren’t about to complain.

In Harvard's March 18 victory over eventual Hay Division champion East Stroudsburg, the middle hitter registered 25 kills on .657 hitting and added six blocks in a 3-1 win. Down the stretch, McKiernan's teammates looked...
...professor of government, writes in an e-mail that in over 40 years, he has only encountered two instances of plagiarism in his courses. “I remember once hearing someone say, ‘You are not a professor until you have clapped your hand on the shoulder of a cheater in the exam room,’” Mansfield writes. “By this standard, I don’t qualify as a professor.”Verba, who has been teaching at the University for over thirty years, says that he does...
