Today, Americans across the state and the nation go to the polls to cast their votes in an election that pundits say will likely reflect a widespread sense of disappointment with the Democratic Party.

In an effort to streamline the University’s capital planning, Harvard Executive Vice President Katie N. Lapp has implemented a more rigorous and centralized process for reviewing each school’s building plans.

Democratic incumbent Gov. Deval L. Patrick '78 hopes for the chance to "finish what he started."

On paper, the number of burglaries at Harvard’s Cambridge campus plummeted 91 percent last year, but the decline had more to do with policy in Washington than safety in Cambridge.

The Allston Civic Association voted against a proposal by Stone Hearth Pizza Co., a local family-style restaurant chain, to occupy a Harvard-owned property at 182 Western Ave. last night.

Mark R. Johnson, a veteran Harvard administrator, has been named Harvard’s new vice president for Capital Planning and Project Management, a position created this summer to consolidate several planning offices that oversee Harvard’s construction efforts, University officials announced yesterday.

This Saturday night, a rare occurrence at Harvard will take place: a party. South Asian Men's Collective will sponsor its fifth annual fundraising (a) party effort. According to this video, proceeds from a party will go to "saying no...to inequity in India's slums." So be fly(-by) like a G6 and check out a party in Lowell d-hall. It will be a party.

Flyby's not so sure what this car was doing parked in front of the Science Center, but apparently it is funded by Tata Technologies, a subsidiary of the Tata Group, which is an Indian conglomerate with a combined market capitalization of $80 billion.

Harvard Business School announced yesterday that it will embark on two major construction projects in Allston—a new executive education building on the school’s campus and a Harvard Innovation Lab in a University-owned property on Western Avenue.

The Allston Work Team will present a set of recommendations for Harvard’s $1 billion expansion in Allston by the middle of next year, according to University Executive Vice President Katherine N. Lapp.
