...mirrored his female counterpart Mills, as both took home the gold medal in the weapon. Senior Maria Larsson finished behind Mills in second. Other Crimson fencers who competed in the NCAA Tournament included freshman foil Shelby MacLeod and Larsson—both of whom finished 17th in their respective weapons??along with Itameri-Kinter, who finished 20th in the men’s foil, and Harmenberg, who finished 23rd. Although a far cry from a national championship, the Crimson made its way back to the highest echelon of American fencing this season, something that has been missing since...
...administration should also take strong measures to dissuade potential violators of the NPT, such as Iran, from developing nuclear weapons. There is little doubt that the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction—especially nuclear weapons??is one of the greatest international security challenges of the twenty-first century. Preventing terrorists and rogue states like North Korea from obtaining nuclear weapons should therefore become of the primary goals of American foreign policy.

...Connecticut State. But the favorite label was not a good look for the Crimson in 2007, as Harvard once again collapsed under pressure, falling 3-2 to the Blue Devils. The loss was emblematic of a season that had so much promise. A team with a dizzying array of weapons??including two All-Americans—succumbed to the pressures of fulfilling its preseason hype. Relative to its history, 2007 was a remarkable year for Harvard. Dynasties, however, are measured not in relativity, but in absolute success. For the Crimson squad, there’s still...
