...thought this one might be different, but we didn’t take it as a good sign when we found out that Derek C. Bok would not be teaching any classes. In other words we found out that there would no classes worth taking. And so, clutching our tear-soaked course catalogs, we began a five-day quest for something to believe in. The hardest part was that, since we play three varsity sports, we could only consider courses that fit within a forty-five minute window.

...where procrastinating first-years can update their MySpace.com page while spilling coffee on the reserve books. But the whole point of a “coffee break” is to get up, stretch the legs, and clear your mind while the cold winds outside Wigglesworth make your eyes tear.

But researchers are only beginning to understand why girls are more likely to tear their anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), a piece of connective tissue that helps hold the knee together. The difference can be dramatic. A recent study by researchers at the Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in Manhattan determined that adolescent female athletes were eight times as likely to injure their ACL as their male counterparts...
