Feature stories

Divinity Under Scrutiny
by Bruce Fellman
For the past year, a review committee has been examining the “school on the hill.” While many graduates feared for Divinity’s future, the soul-searching process has affirmed the school’s fundamental mission. Still unresolved is the matter of the school’s present buildings, and its future location.

Lean on Me
by Annie Murphy Paul
Whether the challenges are eating disorders, sexual identity crises, problems with drinking, or just roommate relationships—undergraduates do not have to face them alone. Beyond the University’s official “safety net” is a wealth of peer support.

The Publication Proliferation
by Annie Murphy Paul
Once, only a select few writers made it into print while they were undergraduates at Yale. But then came the computer, which makes publishing magazines and newspapers relatively easy and inexpensive, as well as a heterogeneous student body with a diverse array of interests. Now, it seems, there’s a publication for almost every group.
