...just wanted to clarify HoCo's official position on the Beltane formal. Officially, HoCo can in no way support or condone any gratuitous or unsafe sexual practices, nor can we officially condemn them. Regardless of our own personal sexual ideologies/moralities, University discrimination policies (rightfully) prevent us from making normative statements regarding sexuality.

Students who obtain a prescription from a doctor for a legitimate reason should be allowed to use Adderall and Ritalin. There are certainly some students who have extreme trouble focusing and have a medical reason to use these drugs.

...viscerally and hyperbolically condemn Harvard’s actions and motives while demanding that administrators sacrifice time and energy to their complaints, however, is only too typical of SLAM’s general approach. SLAM’s interruption of Faust’s lunch is only one example of their bully tactics. Slogans in past campaigns have included such gems as “Harvard you’ve got cash, why do you pay your workers trash?” and “What’s outrageous? Harvard’s wages...
...successor and long-time conservative foe Nicolas Sarkozy market himself as the anti-Chirac. In the latest IPSOS/ParisMatch poll of national politicians, Chirac finished first with a 74% support rating, while recession-hit Sarkozy came in 29th with just 47%. Other recent surveys show 60% of French people condemn the government's handling of the economy. (See pictures of Bastille Day celebrations...
