...directly require schools to let recruiters on campus—since it only kicks in when schools accept federal funds. But the penalties for schools that violate the Solomon Amendment are enormous, and every wing of the university—not just the law school—would suffer. Harvard, for instance, would lose over $400 million a year in federal funds.Last November, a three-judge panel of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Solomon Amendment’s provisions are so onerous that they could be viewed as a direct regulation. The panel cited...
...argument for staying, the most compelling argument would then be that they have built relationships in their short time here and that they have grown accustomed to life as a Harvard student. Although understandable, these reasons underlie their self-interests and dismiss the consequences that their home school may suffer. An extenuating circumstance (Hurricane Katrina) allowed these students the opportunity to continue with their course of study elsewhere. So, unless a special circumstance prevents their return to their home schools, they should not be allowed to stay at Harvard just as visiting students in other colleges should be required...
Snuppy, the dog cloned by South Korean scientists, was a disturbing choice for TIME's Invention of the Year.

While there are people who might approve of the use of more than 100 canine egg donors and 123 surrogate mother dogs to get one viable clone, I and many others consider this "invention" a cynical public relations...

It is extremely important that a piece by such a thoroughly classical composer as Haydn be played lightly, and in this sense, these pieces can be technically more difficult than apparently more demanding ones. Perhaps for this reason, the third performance failed to impress on the level of the first two or the musical epic to come...
...American Diabetes Association, type 2 is the most common form of diabetes. It generally occurs in adults, but has recently been diagnosed in younger patients as well. Those diagnosed with the disease tend to be obese. The study comes at a crucial time: 9 million women currently suffer from type II diabetes, according to the authors. “Right now in the U.S., there’s an epidemic of diabetes that’s entirely preventable,” said Stampfer. The study’s implications are also timely given the growing proportion of breast-feeders nationwide...
