Sexless Beds at Harvard
Anyone who has attempted to spend a night sharing another person’s bed at Harvard has encountered one major obstacle. No, it’s not Harvard’s famed lack of a vibrant social scene or a dearth of viable partners—not only these, anyway—but rather a lack of space in the beds themselves. <The Crimson>
U of Wisconsin Adopts a New Text Message Alert System
An emergency alert e-mail takes almost 20 minutes to reach the thousands of UW-Madison students and faculty. A text message could shorten that to a few.
