...Harvard has a particular history of clamping down on anything resembling fun. But it’s gotten a lot better. 6.FM: You were a biology concentrator at Harvard. What was your love life like?AB: My love life as a Harvard student was pretty much non-existent. This is the problem with campuses like Harvard and other very high-achieving, high-strung campuses—it’s that people become devalued. A human being—a friend, a girlfriend, a boyfriend—is number six or seven on the list of extracurriculars...

While female-focused activities are not necessarily a bad thing—organizations such as Women in Business and the Circle of Women, for example, enable real impact—Women’s Week seems to solely...
...Finland this September, and even in Germany in 2006, many people are concerned and look to lawmakers to respond. We must be reasonable, however, in our expectations. There will always be sociopaths and oddballs in any society or era. We cannot hope to make every single person happy or non-violent. Exaggerating the link between video games and teen violence in this case smacks more of political ploy than effective measure. Policymakers who push for new bans on violent video games help placate the doubts their constituents feel while demonstrating their own supposedly proactive response to crisis. Action without reason...
