...these issues and on many more which remain unforeseen. Because so many Harvard students will be affected by this choice—both now and years down the road—we implore you to assist us in advising the selection of the right candidate for the job. Whitney S. F. Baxter ’07 is an economics concentrator in Pforzheimer House. Katherine A. Beck ’08 is a social studies concentrator in Eliot House. Vivek G. Ramaswamy ’07 is a biological sciences concentrator in Kirkland House. They are Harvard College?...

But by 1935 it had found its way into MOMA's permanent collection. In the Whitney show's catalog, guest curator Michael FitzGerald says that that canvas "would obsess Gorky and his friends for the remainder of the decade...
Identifying the routes through which he made his way into the awareness of American artists and the uses they made of him is the nicely executed purpose of "Picasso and American Art," a new exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York that continues there through Jan. 28 before moving on to San Francisco and Minneapolis, Minn.

...began in a similarly disjointed manner. Neither team was able to find an opening in the early minutes as play centered at midfield. The Crimson got a scare shortly thereafter as the Huskies earned a penalty corner. Northeastern sophomore midfielder Ashley Bascetta passed the ball in to senior forward Whitney Shean, who loudly rocketed the ball off the near post. Shean would continue to pressure, taking four of Northeastern’s ten shots. The Crimson threatened to score next, earning a penalty corner of its own. However, after senior back Jennifer DeAngelis passed the ball in, the Huskies blocked...
