The Crimson Editorial Board is Pleased to Announce its Spring 2014 Columnists

Matthew M. Beck ’14, “The Voyage In.” “The Voyage In” will explore the diversity of Harvard's immigrant community through the personal narratives of the students that compose it. The column will appear on alternate Thursdays.

Jacob R. Drucker ’15, “12 Point, Double Spaced.” This column is intended to be an academic, sober-minded analysis of campus happenings and current events, except on Fridays, which will be more casual. Never mind that The Crimson uses Comic Sans size 10! We know better. This column will appear on alternate Fridays.

Michael T. Feehly ’14, “Opinions on Reserve.” A defense of culture, letters, libraries, and the humanities in the age of scientism. This column will offer provocative solutions to overcome technological and institutional obstacles to living the life of the mind in the twenty-first century.  The column will appear on alternate Thursdays.

Declan P. Garvey ’17, “The Direct Message.” Many cultural phenomena remain outside the control of news outlets or conglomerates. This column will investigate contemporary Twitter trends, as these stories are oftentimes the most accurate reflections of the human condition. The column will appear on alternate Fridays.

Reina A.E. Gattuso ’15, “Material Girl.” A queer column on cultural politics, Material Girl tackles the ethics of being in a body that’s part of bigger systems. Thinking about identity, inclusion, making connections between “over there” and “over here”—and yes, maybe even Madonna--the column will appear on alternate Tuesdays.

Idrees M. Kahloon ’16, “Body Politic.” A look at politics that investigates the idiosyncrasies and incompetence of Washington, and their impact on the general public.  The column will appear on alternate Tuesdays.

Sandra Y.L. Korn ’14, “The Red Line.” The MBTA’s Red Line connects Harvard to the rest of Cambridge, Boston, and the world.  This column will explore the ways Harvard interacts with its community  and how neoliberalism influences these interactions. The column will appear on alternate Mondays

Joshua B. Lipson ’14, “Dining on Sacred Cow.” A bold, ideologically maverick column to challenge social and political orthodoxies on the premise that nothing is sacred. It will approach tired topics like Middle East affairs, human nature, and political psychology from an uncomfortable, but hopeful angle. The column will appear on alternate Wednesdays.

Molly L. Roberts ’16, “Pop a Molly.” Lots of stuff happens at Harvard. In this column, I talk about what matters to me and try to convince you that it should matter to you, too.  The column will appear on alternate Fridays.

Dashiell F. Young-Saver ’16, "A Dash of Insanity." Meant to be a break from legitimate and worthwhile editorial writing, Dash takes a look at the much neglected (for good reason) lighter side of Harvard's heavier issues on alternate Fridays.

Faheem Zaman ’16, “Work in Progress.” This column will examine social interventions from a human lens. It will appear on alternate Wednesdays.

Jonathan Z. Zhou ’14, “Homo Economicus.” A “rational, self-interested” individual’s rambling about economic and campus issues on alternate Mondays.
