There are no strict Islamic bans on alcohol?or on basically having fun in public?as in neighboring countries. A local edition of the listings magazine Time Out identifies 160 establishments in its "Nightlife" section...

Summers called these planning assumptions “hypotheses, not crystallized decisions” in an October address, although his own preferences seem indubitably imprinted. To be fair, we acknowledge the logic here; how can students be asked whether something should exist in Allston while the idea has yet to be fully defined? Still, when the time comes, we hope Summers remains true to his word—giving the bigger question due consideration and properly consulting with students...
