My teacher
My teacher

Surrounded by boisterous pupils who were overly excited about entering middle school, she managed to stay calm and undeterred throughout the semester.

Musings on 'diamond anniversary'

Disruption and instability grow in Africa
Disruption and instability grow in Africa
The leader of Gabon in Africa, Ali Bongo, has been overthrown in a sudden military coup on Aug. 30, right after he was declared the winner in a contested presidential election.

In other words, a woman had to be economically independent to write good essays or novels. In Woolf's early days, work and education opportunit...

Tracing our ancestral roots
I recently had the pleasure of meeting the Choi family, descendants of Korean-American heritage. This encounter occurred during an introductory event, organized by professor David A. Mason. Douglas Choi, a representative of Sons of Rigor Films in Boston, attended the event with his two sons. The elder son is a junior majoring in computer engineering and an ROTC cadet at Harva...

Where is your Walden?
Where is your Walden?
When I first read Henry David Thoreau's “Walden” (“Life in the Forests”) in 1985, I was indelibly impressed by the idea of having spiritual freedom to live independently in the forests.

Subject matter experts
Subject matter experts
Quite some time back I wrote a stingingly incisive piece on “so-called experts.” It was not published in this paper. Perhaps, because it leaned toward a scathing attack upon anyone calling themselves an expert.
