...writes that the journey, however uncertain, is going to be made rich, not so much by the Ensemble, but by what Harvard students can offer up. “From the sight-reading abilities of the students who came to the [reading sessions], 95% of whom were not music majors, to the great questions and comments we got from students in the classes, to the amazing enthusiasm and energy of the jam session, everywhere we went we could feel the intelligence and open-mindedness of Harvard undergraduates,” Ma wrote...

Vinatieri shanked a 37-yarder, his first miss in 35 consecutive tries within the 47-yard line, and the Patriots squandered their opening drive of the game.As the ball fell right, a hush fell over...
