Matthew A. Gline ’06

a physics concentrator in Quincy House, wants desperately to legitimize his web surfing addiction. To that end, “Bits and Bytes,” his column on technology policy at Harvard and in the world at large, will appear on alternate Tuesdays.

Brian M. Goldsmith ’05

a government concentrator in Lowell House, still believes in a place called Fiscal Responsibility. Meantime, he loves long walks on the beach. “Politically Corrected” continues to investigate the political and policy choices of public officials, but now wonders: Is this the worst we can do? He has stopped asking other questions. His column will appear on alternate Thursdays.

Andrew Golis ’06

is a social studies concentrator in Winthrop House, originally from Santa Rosa, Calif. Andrew is worried that entering the political cemetery that is having a Crimson column may be a sign that he is no longer relevant. With “Community Politics” he will cling to whatever relevance he has left and try to contribute to the dialogue on campus, about campus, on alternate Tuesdays.

Phoebe Kosman ’05

a history and literature concentrator in Winthrop House, is very fond of parlor games, with especial reference to charades. Kosman will explore other cultural phenomena in “By the Yard,” which will continue to run on alternate Mondays.

Jason L. Lurie ’05

is a chemistry concentrator in Cabot house. As a longtime conductor of the Clue Train, he has often been overheard shouting, “Woo woo! All aboard!” His column, “On My Nerves,” will investigate things that bother him on campus —which is to say, just about everything and, in particular, intellectual dishonesty. His column will appear on alternate Mondays.

Sarah M. Seltzer ’05

an English Concentrator in Lowell House, is the former Editor of Fifteen Minutes. In her column, “pop and fizz,” she plans to be herself, emphatically. She’ll write about the trials and tribulations of being young, liberal, and pop-culture savvy on alternate Fridays.

Samuel M. Simon ’06

a social studies concentrator in Eliot House, hails from the Cambridge of the Southwest, Santa Fe, New Mexico. In his column, “Base Politics,” he will try to justify his life by making the peons of electoral politics seem important. His column will run on alternate Wednesdays.

Stephen W. Stromberg ’05

is a Russian studies concentrator in Adams House. As his term as editorial chair of The Crimson is now complete, Stromberg wants to tell you what he really thinks about University policy, politics and pedagogy without the editorial “we” muddling his rhetoric. Look for a cornucopia of pronouns in the first-person singular and fully attributable boilerplate in “Elementary,” which will appear on alternate Fridays.

Brandon M. Terry ’05

is a government and African and African American studies concentrator affiliated with Lowell House and a former president of Harvard’s Black Men’s Forum. In his column, “On The Real,” he will try to explore issues of race, class, politics, pop culture and Harvard life as an excuse to be in the paper without organizing actual events. Please be warned that he does not speak for all black people, but only because he doesn’t look as good in sunglasses as Bill Cosby. His column will appear on alternate Wednesdays.

David Weinfeld ’05

is a history concentrator in Quincy House. He believes that at Harvard, there’s a lot to complain about. And in “Oy Veritas!” he will complain, but not without purpose, but to shock, provoke and amuse you. For those whose internal monologue keeps asking: “So what’s the deal with (blank) at Harvard?” This column is for you. At the same time, it’s also for those who ask: How can we make it better? Check it out on alternate Thursdays.
