...wear a fairly conservative suit in a fairly conservative color.” However, in person OCS advisors (read: translators) explain that if a woman wants to play it safe, fairly conservative must be defined as a jacket and skirt. The interview-prep site WetFeet.com is more explicit, advising that “a skirt suit is de rigeur, and anything other than non-textured nude hose and heels is pushing the envelope of what’s acceptable.” No need to stop by Hootenanny for pleather and fishnets; apparently, in the interview world, just slipping into...
...Professor Brad S. Epps, Preceptor Tom Jehn and Lecturer Timothy Patrick McCarthy, “Why Hoxby is Wrong,” (Oct. 25) seems to have a problem with numbers. They quote Hoxby as saying, “It contains several people who have an explicit pro-living wage agenda and it contains no one with an opposing agenda” and point to the fact that Hoxby has one herself.

She accuses the committee’s membership of lacking balance since its very inception: “It contains several people who have an explicit pro-living wage agenda and it contains no one with an opposing agenda.” A curious locution. Who, if not Hoxby, opposes the progressive economics of a living wage at Harvard? As a conservative economist who does not otherwise hide her criticism of unions in her scholarship on school choice and who clearly wants a chorus...
...outward signs of pride in and love for Harvard. The sense of tradition, continuity and fellowship that feeds the myth of Harvard, Harvard the ancient and honorable, is most palpable in ceremonial events like Commencement or Opening Ceremonies. It’s very difficult to find anything as explicit in ordinary undergraduate life...
