...dwellers of Widener: one day, those hundred-plus pages will be worth it. At least they were for Ceridwen Dovey ’03. Dovey’s senior thesis included a short film documentary, “Aftertaste,” about laborers on South African wine farms. Her global work brought her back to Cambridge on Tuesday for a new English department program, “Writers in the Parlor.” The series, new this year, brings two to three creative writers to Harvard each semester.

The Israelis rely on a web of informers for information. Saleh Abdul Jawad, a political science professor at Birzeit University, says Israel has "tens of thousands" of Palestinian informers on its payroll.
