And in fact, I am delighted that I'll be blogging for 02138 on the subject of everything Harvard. I like the magazine a lot—and not just because they give me money—and so blogging for its website makes perfect sense.

The latest of Bush’s appointees may have more in common with Al Gore than with the man himself. After 32 years on Wall Street, Paulson hasn’t forgotten that money isn’t the only thing that’s green: when not chasing down the big bucks, he likes to hug trees, save coral reefs, and watch birds. That said, Paulson is pretty good at making money.

Leave it to The Guardian to lead with the outrageous side of Harry Seidler, the groundbreaking Australian architect who died March 19 at 82.
“It doesn’t worry me that people have criticized the building,” he told a Sydney paper four years ago. “What do you expect from illiterate people? They’re insensitive and uneducated, so why should I take them seriously?”
