After definitively telling Bostonist that a scabies outbreak happened at Harvard's Pennypacker Hall, the school's University Health Service (UHS) sent out an e-mail saying might not have been scabies after all. Maybe. The memo from UHS sent Wednesday afternoon states that the results are inconclusive and that the ants in the Pennypacker pants resulted from "unknown" causes.

When Jeffrey Larson left the confines of Harvard to run his own firm, Harvard gave him a parting gift of $500 million. Larson lost the $350 from that and sold...
The Harvard Crimson is mired in the controversies of copycat cartoonists, quote cribbing, and an editor who would like to hide in a spiderhole. It's not a good sign for the future of journalism when the editor of an Ivy League paper takes damage-control tips from Saddam Hussein.
