...voice their partialities. If the CEB (hopefully) opens their ears to undergraduate feedback, perhaps they should also open students’ ears to the music of their peers. A CEB-sponsored concert featuring Harvard bands would be a good way to get students excited for Yardfest, and the winner of a Battle of the Bands might even be awarded with the chance to open Yardfest’s headliner. The CEB is already taking steps to increase their transparency and increase communication with students. Next year’s process of choosing of artist will take a student poll into...

That's an impressive gain, but Lugo points out that churn is everywhere: even the unaffiliated group lost 50% of its original membership to one church or another...
...senior tri-captain Caitlin Cahow said. “For us, I think overall it was about finding ourselves in a tough game and figuring out how to come out on top.”The catalyst for victory turned out to be Vaillancourt’s shorthanded winner, a testament to her clutch play for the team.“She’s doing great,” Stone said. “She works so hard to prepare herself to play. She’s playing great right now and that’s what we need...
