...visible in the department,” said Carol S. Davis, undergraduate student program coordinator in the physics department, whose office sits across the hall from the study. “I’ve already promised baked goods—we need to get these students in there somehow.”The study will be run by the Society of Physics Students, Morin, and Physics Professor Howard Georgi ’68, according to Bhatt.—Staff writer Esther I.

In the process of trying to find Shasta—and Mickey, who disappears simultaneously, but separately—Doc winds up entangled with an undead saxophonist, a contract killer, several drug dealers, and a dentist, all somehow connected to a sinister outfit called the “Golden Fang.”For a primer to help you decode what seems convoluted in “Inherent Vice,” look to Pynchon’s second novel, “The Crying...

In a university that prides itself on aesthetic preservation over centuries, this explosion of pastel has caused quite a sensation. The medley of eye-catching metal is the newest thing on campus since wireless Internet and Radcliffe girls, and, as with these predecessors, I am greatly pleased by the addition. The colorful chairs offer something for everyone. For freshmen, they offer more human targets during Frisbee recreation. For upperclassmen, a seat to reflect with nostalgia...
