...year after imposing stricter restrictions on travel destinations, the College got it right once more. The College’s decision last week to reinstate some countries under State Department travel warnings as approved travel destinations was a welcome turnaround from a wrongheaded previous policy. The looser restrictions allow students to get course credit and money to travel to 13 additional countries, and they bring the College to the head of the line amongst peer institutions.

According to Eiichiro Sekigawa...
...life of a superstar DJ sounds like one endless party. You get to travel the world, perform for thousands of scantily clad ravers, and earn a stack of money?all for playing other people's songs. But there are downsides. Have you ever felt the weight of a DJ's record box? The back pain from lifting those crates every night must be unbearable...
