...apply early to schools generally enjoy a higher rate of admission, an advantage that those seeking entrance into Harvard’s Class of 2012 will not benefit from. For the Class of 2010, Harvard admitted 21 percent of its early applicants, but accepted only 9.3 percent of its regular applicants. “I think that by deciding to take away the early admissions option, Harvard will in a way be reducing its appeal to some top tier applicants who are seeking security in knowing where they’re going,” Phillips Exeter Academy junior Conor...
...arthroscopically for about seven years and I hope I never have to go back to the old way. The only reason for this would be financial. All this innovation is, predictably, rather expensive. I used $20 worth of suture in 1999 when I did the repair open (through a regular surgical incision, looking at the tissues directly with my eyes, not on a TV screen). The bio-absorbable suture anchors, pumps, cannulas and all the other little throw-away doodads that make my arthroscopic repair possible typically cost over $1200 per case. The arthroscopic method probably accounts for about half...

...physicist Roy J. Glauber and star professors like Louis Menand in an intimate setting and, if you’re lucky, may even manage to score a Spring Break fieldtrip to Tokyo. Though these courses may officially be “freed from the usual constraints associated with a regular course offering” (i.e. letter grades and final exams), they aren’t all a walk in the Harvard Forest (although you can do that too). Many have full-length term papers and a hefty reading load. Having not yet mastered the art of BS, it becomes painfully...
...opponent can be taken lightly, especially after the 2005 season in which Cornell upset Harvard in a surprise 27-13 victory.So the squad is preparing for a strong Holy Cross team.“We probably don’t know as much as we would about a regular season opponent simply because they’ve played a couple games and we haven’t played one,” Crimson coach Tim Murphy said. “But from what we do know, they’re an improved football team [from] over a year...
