In an interview with The Crimson on Monday, Hammonds said a third set of House Masters would announce plans to step down...

Obviously the administration is really behind it, and now it’s up to all of you to pick it up and get the ball rolling.THC: Do you think that a passion for the arts can really be taught here?YYM: It’s not about teaching, it’s about creating the environment and getting a critical mass of interested people to create enough sparks that things start to happen. If you have 500 disparate groups, that’s not a commitment to arts...
