...days of anonymity may be numbered. Murdoch is talking enthusiastically about recording with producer Tony Hoffer (Beck, Air) in Los Angeles between games of football with Robbie Williams and other Brit expats. "We think the album is going to have a degree of permanence because it sounds so solid," says Murdoch, "and you can dance to it." The faithful need not worry, however. The album is filled with trademark tales of quirky outsiders, like Sukie in the Graveyard who secretly lives in the art-school attic, and the ode to an imaginary girlfriend, Funny Little Frog.

Deep trouble. Yale...
...funds expand to keep pace with the growing study abroad program. Reservations about the quality of education outside the walls of Harvard also play an important role in inhibiting students from leaving Cambridge. Such doubts are especially common among students in the sciences, where sequenced curricula depend on consistently solid instruction. Last year, science concentrators represented a disproportionately small number of total students studying abroad (only 15 percent). Recruiting Harvard science faculty to teach abroad and developing partnerships with world-class laboratories and institutions must remain a priority for study abroad programming. Most importantly, while the latest developments...
