...Delaney-Smith said. Marist took the lead for good just three minutes into the game on a layup from forward Lynzee Johnson, but Harvard stayed within single-digit striking distance throughout the half. With starters Niki Finelli and Katie Rollins on the bench with two fouls apiece, Alemany was thrust into action and sparked the Crimson’s offense to keep things close. Her three-pointer with 1:50 to play in the period pulled Harvard within two at 24-22.“It didn’t have enough emotion for me until we put the subs...

No warning, no explanation, just “Whaam!” “Pow!” “Pop!” and there it was: art and fashion (and the philosophical ponderings of the intersection between the two) thrust upon me by a pair of kicks. With the conference celebrating Andy Warhol’s legacy at the Sackler this past weekend and Barack Obama’s image superimposed on t-shirts and posters across campus, this idea of art, popular culture, and fashion—that...
