...last fall. The Bush administration ordered the University to allow military recruitment on campus—even though the military’s anti-gay policies blatantly violate Harvard’s nondiscrimination code. Administration officials threatened to cut off a half-billion dollars in annual federal funds unless Harvard complied. Harvard bowed to Bush. It sold its soul for $500 million a year...
...suite. My suitemates and I are not alone in the experience of not getting wireless internet in the room. We are, perhaps, unique in the fact that we now live under the router in the hallway.

One of my cousins still keeps faith in the president, correcting me when I fail to call him Dr. Ahmadinejad, as supporters do. "Who else stood up for Hizballah when the Israelis attacked Lebanon?" my cousin asks. But most Iranians seem to be concerned more with everyday issues like the cost of groceries and the lack of good jobs. On a recent hike with a group of Iranians from around...
