Where Should Data Centers Go? | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How do you decide where to put a data center that will consume as much power as a small city? Data centers have existed to support early computers and the internet for decades. Every data center in the U.S. draws power from a regional electrical grid and water from a local watershed—costs that are usually calculated after they’re built, if at all. But in the last five years, the boom of artificial intelligence has driven up the energy demand. Hyperscale data centers, designed to handle AI and cl
Don’t Call Stephanie Pierce A Paleontologist | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Stephanie E. Pierce doesn’t like to call herself a “paleontologist,” which might come as a surprise for the curator of vertebrate paleontology at Harvard’s Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ).

The changes will impact international students and visiting scholars, and potentially their families, who enter the country under F and J visas. F-1 visas are granted to students enrolled in traditional academic and language p
Last Call in Cambridge | Harvard Magazine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For Cambridge’s late-night crowd, this was a summer of highs and lows, as the freewheeling joy of the World Cup collided with a longstanding fact of life in the city: its leaders have seldom been friendly to the flow of alcohol. For six weeks during the summer, bars in the city of Cambridge were permitted to stay open until 3 a.m.—an hourlong extension beyond the usual closing time. And within the boundaries of a few designated blocks, drinks legally went out the door in plastic cups until the e
