		Harvard's athletic rivalry with Yale is intense in every sport in which they meet, coming to a climax in their annual football meeting, which dates to 1875 and is usually called simply The Game as a sign of its importance.
		Harvard has a friendly rivalry with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology which dates back to 1900, when a merger of the two schools was frequently mooted and at one point officially agreed upon (ultimately cancelled by Massachusetts courts).
		In a move unprecedented in the history of Harvard on March 15, 2005, members of Harvard's Faculty of Arts and Sciences, which instructs graduate students in GSAS and undergraduates in Harvard College, passed 218-185 a motion of "lack of confidence" in the leadership of the current president Lawrence Summers, with 18 abstentions.

		Measured purely by statistics, Harvard is one of the world's most prominent universities —as Baedeker's guidebook phrased it in 1893, "the oldest, richest, and most famous of American seats of learning." Since 1974, for example, nineteen Nobel Prize winners and fifteen Pulitzer Prize winners have served on the Harvard faculty.
		Harvard's graduate schools are also very selective: the 2006 figures from U.S. News indicated that the business school admitted 14.3% of its applicants, the engineering division admitted 12.5%, the law school admitted 11.3%, the education school admitted 11.2%, and the medical school admitted 4.9%.
		The Harvard Business School and many of the university's athletics facilities, including Harvard Stadium, are located in Allston, on the other side of the Charles River from Harvard Square, and the University has plans to move more of its facilites to recently-acquired land in Allston.

	Harvard Gazette: Making case for concept of 'implicit prejudice'
		At the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, social psychologists Mahzarin Banaji of the Harvard faculty and the University of Washington's Anthony Greenwald have joined University of California, Berkeley, legal scholar Linda Hamilton Krieger for a research project that aims to extend the boundaries of the legal definitions of discrimination.
		And this bias is hardly inconsequential, she says: Implicit attitudes, they have found, predict behavior, from simple acts of friendliness and inclusion to judgments of "goodness" or evaluation of the quality of work.
		While social psychology creates and advances new knowledge regularly, the law lags in incorporating this empirical research, clinging instead to naïve lay notions of social perception and judgment that are at best outdated and at worst, wrong.

		Serious and thoughtful people are advocating and taking actions that are anti-Semitic in their effect if not their intent.
		At the same rallies where protesters, many of them university students, condemn the IMF and global capitalism and raise questions about globalization, it is becoming increasingly common to also lash out at Israel.
		And some here at Harvard and some at universities across the country have called for the University to single out Israel among all nations as the lone country where it is inappropriate for any part of the university’s endowment to be invested.
