...middle of the 20th century by the founders of the Israeli state. Yesterday’s event drew the attention of Harvard Students for Israel (HSI), the members of which stood at the entrance to the lecture hall distributing single sheets of paper with controversial Chomsky quotations on one side and an article attesting to the “True History of 1948” on the other. HSI had previously approached Nakba on Dershowitz’s behalf in an unsuccessful attempt to have the law professor debate Chomsky. “Chomsky always needs to have a truth...
...postdoctoral students, 10 of whom have already started working in Harvard labs since the initial announcement of the agreement in October. Weitz added that the topics of all 20 projects under the initiative will be jointly agreed upon by Harvard faculty and BASF researchers. “No one side can determine the project themselves,” Weitz said. “In the end, what BASF is interested in is the individual creativity of all the professors working with the company.” Weitz said that the agreement will allow Harvard faculty to pursue their individual research...
...HCMC] offered me the opportunity to get a number and do something for charity, which I really thought added to the experience.” Eagan crossed the finish line in three hours, 50 minutes and 41 seconds.

A light-brown-skinned man with an Afro, Wright regularly wore dashikis, and laced his Sunday sermons with a level of political rhetoric that over the years has often proved too political for some African Americans. Nevertheless, Trinity's congregation grew to some 8,000 (Oprah Winfrey and the rapper Common have attended services there). Wright's prominence in Chicago soon gained him national attention and won him entry into...
