Feature stories:

Yale Under Construction
by Mark Alden Branch ’86
In the last ten years, nearly every corner of the campus has been cordoned off, torn up, and put back together in a $2 billion program of renovations and new buildings. And there’s more on the way.

Child’s Play
by Brian Seibert ’97
The Yale Rep is pulling out all the stops for a children’s opera from the 1930s. The sets are by Maurice Sendak, the libretto is by Tony Kushner, and there’s a happy ending. But the production history of this play is tragic.

Man and Myth at Yale
by Molly Worthen ’03
For 30 years, Charles Hill was a quietly effective diplomat in the back corridors of the State Department. At Yale, he is the kind of teacher some students hold in awe. In this essay, a former student tells why Hill’s classes have “the aura of power, the whiff of elitism, the promise of an answer to life’s messiest questions.”
