...next week or so will prove, they haven’t really been taking full advantage. In the midst of all this academic agony, we’re grateful that one thing hasn’t yet changed: our calendar. While the Harvard College Curricular Review was in full swing last year, the consolidation of the schedules of all of Harvard’s nine schools seemed imminent. Four of the schools have their finals before break, and the other five, like the College, hold their finals after break. This calendar disconnect makes it harder for students to cross-register...

The first...
...Lieberman of Connecticut, and the increasingly hawkish Hillary Clinton of New York. The numbers left the GOP and the President short by 8 votes in their attempt to override the filibuster. As the clock ticked down Thursday night, the GOP leadership launched a last-ditch effort to swing Senators, threatening to let the law's sunsetted provisions expire entirely. "Tomorrow's vote is going to be the only vote," warned Frist aide Bob Stevenson...
