...Vaginas of the Harvard Community,” credited to Colette S. Perold ’11, is a collage of sixteen black-and-white photographs, laid out in a four-by-four grid. Half of the images depict vaginas and half other objects—a head of lettuce, an elongated flame—but even these, in context, take on a distinctly labial character.

From businesses that have been crushed by rising health care costs to pharmaceutical companies cleverly co-opted by the White House early on in the process; from the doctors' organizations (including the American Medical Association) that endorsed the final product to, yes, even the vilified insurance companies - none of these entities are going to join the charge to reverse the new reality of U.S. health care, and many will make...
