...vaccine we typically use protects against four strains...the problem is, the major strain in the U.S. is strain B,” said Mark S. Pasternack, an associate professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and chief of the pediatric infectious disease unit at the Massachusetts General Hospital, referring to the major strain the vaccine does not protect against...
...perhaps, the cheery truth—is that pressure here is entirely self-inflicted. It is perfectly possible to coast through, working very little and obtaining what, in pre-gender equality days, used to be called Gentleman’s Cs. Yet, to hear students stress and strain over pointless problem sets and redundant response papers, one would assume that Harvard demanded constant academic brilliance in order to remain within its exclusive ranks. Let’s destroy this canard once and for all: You do not need to work nearly as hard once you’re here...

I have begun to think, however, that an objective observer may simply label this a “innate lack of style...
Cross-fertilization—the process by which different strains of a crop combine to produce a new organism containing genetic material from both parent strains—can only occur with whole grains. Crushing the kernel of a grain, known as milling, prevents it from reproducing and thus transmitting its genetic material to a daughter organism. Milling GM crops thus eliminates the danger of cross-fertilization and strain contamination by making it impossible for the crops to transmit their altered genes by reproduction...
