...Engineering Sciences 147: “Idea Translation: Effecting Change through the Arts and Sciences,” had a final project that took them beyond the classroom. The team members, who are current Harvard students and recent graduates, are looking to implement off-the-grid energy technology that uses the microbial fuel cells in dirt to produce cost-efficient energy that can be brought to the rural and un-powered areas of Africa. David A. Edwards, the course’s professor, originally assigned a project to artistically light London for the 2012 Olympics. But because of roots...

...decided to put all my eggs in one basket: the Dewey Decimal System basket. I figured the kind of girl I wanted would hang out at Lamont in the 636s: Animal Husbandry.

Finding no one to saddle up with in the 636s, I moved on and checked out a copy of the “Protestant Ethic” and proceeded to read it as sensuously as possible across from the cutest girl on the third floor...

...only are student groups struggling to plan and execute social events, but their educational events, such as lectures, panels, and forums, are incurring higher costs.” The parallels between the two sites do not stop there. Both campaigns discuss their unique and revolutionary plans to use the Cambridge Center for Adult Education on Brattle Street as a student space, bring back a revised party grant system, and instituting a “J-term.” The Web sites further address the different outlooks the frontrunners have on student input in changes the UC is striving...

...Blagojevich then tried to use a union official as an intermediary to the Obama transition and "Senate Candidate 1." On Nov. 12, Blagojevich discussed the open Senate seat with an official from the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). During the conversation, Blagojevich said he understood that the SEIU official was an "emissary to discuss Senate Candidate 1's interest" in the seat, according to the complaint. Blagojevich said he would be interested in the 501(c)(4) arrangement, and the SEIU official agreed to "put that flag up and see where it goes." Late Tuesday, an SEIU spokesperson said...
