...move into Allston will probably be the most significant development for Harvard in the 21st century. The University’s crossing of the Charles and southward expansion promise to produce valuable opportunities for scientific research, graduate education, and arts and culture. Allston’s impact on undergraduate life, however, is less certain.The Allston planners’ interim report, which was released in June, suggests several potential sites for up to four new undergraduate Residential Houses (ostensibly to replace Quad and DeWolfe housing sometime in the next 10 to 20 years).

...less from the 6’1, 210-lb. kid that he snatched from the jaws of Wake Forest University. Though Wilson might look pretty comfortable in Crimson, it was by no means a foregone conclusion. Shopping around for schools his senior year, Wilson focused most of his attention southward. Winthrop University, where his brother pitches, was one option, but Wake Forest courted him heavily. Then, the weekend before he was to sign on as a Demon Deacon, Walsh called...
