...lost in September’s regular House election and in December’s presidential race, when he ran on a ticket with Magnus Grimeland ’07. Hadfield said his priorities for this semester include his previous campaign pledges to put coursepacks on-line, arrange year-long shuttle services with Harvard Student Agencies, and improve teaching quality in sections. When asked if he will run for UC President next year, Hadfield joked, “I think there’s enough ambition on the UC already.” Hadfield said he plans to study abroad...
Summers plans to return to teaching after a year-long sabbatical, when the Corporation plans to name him one of Harvard's 19 elite University professors, according to the release...

In a pedagogy which celebrates student choice, this means they must be incentivized. If students take a year-long CGE, it should count for a full distribution requirement—the equivalent of three courses, not just two. Students won’t really be cheating the system, because, ideally, CGEs will also be difficult and competitive, just as Expository Writing and Social Studies 10 are?...
