Prices are down and markets are hurting. Some might think it’s a buyer’s market out there (we couldn't tell you—we're barely passing Ec 10). So what has Harvard been investing in? Well, BJ Services, for one. Marvel comics and Chipotle burritos...
Celebrity jazz concerts are often dreary affairs—museums of dusty music where real jazz goes to die. Think of beige nights at Lincoln Center, the players wearing stiff suits, anxious to showcase their cool virtuosity while neglecting to tell a story with their music.

Spanning that decade, the audience is presented with a complex, moving look at this strange little place, the fear of three ruthless serial killers, and the desperation of having literally nowhere to turn in a town so filled with corruption...
