...lacked in looks though, they compensated for in charm. “There was a guy nominated from Cornell who teaches a class in gender theory or something that allows him to show porn in class. And apparently he comes in one day of the year wearing a dominatrix suit, and ‘S&M’ kind of thing,” editor number one said. Out of the thirty-five or so people initially nominated, only three were from Harvard: Kenan Professor of Government Harvey C. Mansfield ’53, Reisinger Professor of Slavic Languages...

CORNELL STUDENTS WILL no longer have easy access to copyrighted reading material online, after the American Association of Publishers threatened suit. But the Sun muddles the issue with this breathless lede: Most students would be shocked to know that their professor had broken the law, and even more surprised to find out that they had witnessed it. But as unlikely as that situation seems, it happened on a daily basis last year and probably would have continued this year if the University had not been threatened with a lawsuit.The Sun also catches up with former President Jeff Lehman, and doesn...

...licensed guides, these trips depart every weekend morning throughout the season at 9.30 a.m., regardless of weather (don't fret about the cold, because you'll be bundled into an insulated and waterproof survival suit). Prices for the two-hour excursion start from $110, and the payoff is breathtaking: flying at speeds of up to 50 kph, with wing spans as wide as 2.4 m, the eagles skim the water and make their kills with astonishing precision before gliding back to the towering treetops or mountains behind. What's more, all this takes place just an hour's drive from...

...tiny differences, sprinkled throughout the genome, have made all the difference. Agriculture, language, art, music, technology and philosophy--all the achievements that make us profoundly different from chimpanzees and make a chimp in a business suit seem so deeply ridiculous--are somehow encoded within minute fractions of our genetic code. Nobody yet knows precisely where they are or how they work, but somewhere in the nuclei of our cells are handfuls of amino acids, arranged in a specific order, that endow us with the brainpower to outthink and outdo our closest relatives on the tree of life.
