...Doris Cohen Levi Prize for achieving excellence in an extensive repertoire of musical theater. “It was such an honor,” she says. “The OFA has been such a tremendous organization of support who have been so wonderful in coming to our shows and being behind us. It was lovely to get this prize.” A college-long member of the Harvard-Radcliffe Dramatic Club, she recently starred as Luisa Contini in the New College Theatre production of “Nine” and as Mrs. Lovett in last year?...

Munir’s immigration officer has discretionary power to delay his deportation, and a strong show of support from Harvard would likely have an impact on his decision. Munir’s case also raises questions about the transparency and efficiency of the United States Department of Homeland Security. He was detained shortly after his final appeal was rejected on March 18, 2009, and his classmates and professors...
