...Perhaps more disturbing is the return of Cold War rhetoric ahead of Clinton's visit. The most alarming exchanges have centered on a new missile shield being proposed by Obama to protect against threats from Iran and North Korea. The new shield would be built farther away from the Russian heartland, but it has still roused the same fury from Moscow, which last month renewed its threat to point tactical missiles at Europe.

But as much as people complain about the distance to the Yard, it’s really only a shuttle ride away from everything. The Quad is its own tight community—Currier and Pforzheimer are both only a 10- or 20-foot dash away—and it has its own gym, the Quadrangle Recreational Athletic Center, where you can almost always find a machine when the Cabot gym cardio equipment is in use. The Quad also gives...
