highlights

Surprise exit for VP
Charles Pagnam, the university's chief fund-raiser, resigned after 27 years at Yale. The announcement came as a surprise to most of the university community -- and to most of the fund-raising staff, who learned of it just a few days before Pagnam left his position as vice president for development.

Sugar by any other name
The Way to Eat author David L. Katz explains the obesity epidemic and says that Americans can remake the modern food supply by making better food choices.

Understanding Clarence Thomas
To this day, Clarence Thomas '74JD has declined to sit for a portrait for the Yale Law School: a small personal protest against an institution in which he felt unhappy as a student and which rallied to his accuser during the terrible battle over his nomination to the Supreme Court in 1991.

Q&A: Rick Levin
President Rick Levin '74PhD has committed to extensive capital improvements in Yale's science facilities recently. The arts, he says, are also due.

House Proud
In 1969, a handful of black students founded the Afro-American Cultural Center -- "the House" -- as shelter and home base for African Americans at Yale. What does the House mean today to those who love it? On its 35th anniversary, House-affiliated alumni talked about outreach, Saturday night dances, and where they'd like Yale to try harder.

feature
Youth & Consequences
In the game most people were watching, Yale lost to Harvard. But in the places where football and life intersect, the contests were more complicated and the victories harder to call.
