there is a very interesting article in The Atlantic Monthly magazine about Harvard written by Ross Douthat titled, The Truth About Harvard. actually, it isn't just about Harvard, but is something of a condemnation of America's top colleges and the way they currently run their operations, with focused criticism on grade inflation and its resulting in an academic ease and overall lack of seriousness in Harvard's undergraduate halls. not quite a polemic, but something that college students like me are rather interested in.
as much as i like my friends at Harvard, and as some of my professors here like to make subtle and good-natured digs about their contemporaries at Harvard, i am pretty satisfied with life down here in lower Manhattan.
