...victory over the Crimson (6-7). This marks Brown’s sixth straight victory over Harvard, dating back to last season. Since 2004, the Bears have controlled the series with a 14-6 advantage over the Crimson. “We didn’t expend sufficient energy to execute what we needed to execute,” said Harvard coach Erik Farrar. “That is without a question the worst game we played all year. We were just flat and not moving. We got outplayed, outhustled, and outmuscled.” Brown opened the first quarter...

Up 4-3, Valkin seemed poised to break his opponent, but three questionable calls over the course of four points cost him the break and drew howls of anger from the crowd. At that...
...impact long-term success, providing stability and the authority to direct it coherently.Most research at Harvard is funded through external grants, but faculty recruiting, new equipment and space, and lab renovations are all funded by Harvard based on requests by department chairs. Departments are less likely to expend resources recruiting scholars who work on the periphery of their respective fields—but these are precisely the scientists Harvard needs if it is to be a leader in cross-disciplinary research. Operating independent of the departments, HUSEC will be able to fill that gap: Its mission includes hiring faculty...
