...branch by branch. Best of all, the video didn’t try to glamorize the performer or interpret the song by adding a story. Instead, the video focused on the sound itself, and it did a perfect job. Koichiro Tsujikawa’s wonderfully strange video for the Cornelius song “Like a Rolling Stone” was another highlight. To accompany Cornelius’ ambient electronics, Tsujikawa created a detailed, swirling world of archways, pedestals, and many small plastic humans. At the end of the video, the plastic humans turn back into rocks. Of the twenty...

Finally, Africa's democratic institutions remain weak. Like Kibaki, many African leaders have a hard time accepting an unfavorable verdict from the electorate and walking away from office. "Democracy in Africa is not what is understood in the West," says Catholic bishop Cornelius Korir, whose cathedral in the town of Eldoret, north of Kiambaa, has become a refugee camp for 9,000 Kikuyus. "Since their wealth depends on power, our leaders are never ready to admit defeat." Incumbents like Kibaki, Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe and Uganda's Yoweri Museveni are among those who tried to alter their country's constitutions...

...history of Harvard’s presidents, only Cornelius C. Felton, Class of 1827, can really compete in his lifetime dedication to scholarship, and in the past century only James B. Conant ’14 comes close. I have nothing but admiration for the extraordinary achievements and diverse backgrounds of Harvard’s past presidents, but I also rejoice in the fact that by choosing Faust, the Corporation has affirmed the University’s core values of teaching and research...

Rumor has it that soon Harvard will have a new president, and if so, the announcement will take place just shy of a year to the day when the resignation of Lawrence H. Summers was announced. His was the shortest tenure in the presidential office since that of Cornelius Conway Felton, Class of 1827, who, in addition to being deaf as a post, died in office in 1862 after serving just two years.
