...their faith in their resident dean or assistant dean of freshmen, who serves as their advocate to the Board. Though the advocate abstains from voting on matters regarding students he or she represents, it is certainly a gross conflict of interest to have the student’s sole liaison to a judicial body also be a member of that body. Another major flaw in the system is the lack of student representation on the Administrative Board. Students representatives would provide a valuable additional perspective that the Board currently lacks as they would be able to contextualize each students?...
...Denmark have 50-50 rights to profits from Greenland's natural resources. Securing full rights to administer the oil, gas and minerals harvested from their land and water has been a recurring theme among Greenlanders who want greater sovereignty, but talks about whether the territory will take over sole rights are currently stalled. And in August Denmark sent a crew of some 40 scientists on a technically unprecedented mission to explore whether a ridge beneath the North Pole was geologically linked to their territory.

Defensive Line It was arguably the best in the nation a year ago, but with...

It won't come cheap. Analysts estimate that GM could end up paying 60 to 70 cents on the dollar of its $50 billion obligation to establish the trust. But investors have been pushing for a VEBA since Goodyear set up a similar plan with the United Steelworkers last year. Wall...
