...vengeful Norse gods, a few intrepid Kirkland residents led an all-out war against the company—which ultimately proved more successful than their thus-far embarrassing efforts at CEB Risk. Predictably, their efforts were followed by the passage of righteously indignant legislation by our august Undergraduate Council (UC) (of course belatedly and only once UC leaders were completely assured of the initiative’s success). For a time it actually appeared that HSA and Harvard would sever ties with Collegeboxes, and that a UC position paper had, for once, actually made a difference. But like a once...
Last week, the Undergraduate Council (UC) circulated a declaration of grievances remonstrating against the cold shoulder the administration has turned to students recently.

Using the CEB’s money to hold small scale or House-based events does nothing to further the creation of Harvard...
...UC President Ryan A. Petersen ’08 opened the proceedings yesterday with a reference to the e-mail that Interim President Derek C. Bok sent to undergraduates this week in which he pledged to solicit opinions on the prospect of changing the calendar...
