Special Feature: In Pursuit of a New President
The College is on the hunt for its seventeenth president after James Wright announced his June 2009 resignation. A search committee has been formed; its antecedental task is the resolution of this question: is this a time for steady-as-she-goes, or is there a mandate for fresh leadership? Updates here.

The New York Times on the Democratic National Committee’s decision to stage Senator Obama’s acceptance speech as a dramatic, larger-than-life outdoor extravaganza:
When a close circle of his top advisers presented Mr. Obama with $6 million plans to move his acceptance speech to the football stadium in early July, the candidate asked one question, said Anita Dunn, a senior strategist: “Will it rain?” The campaign produced a raft of meteorological data showing it had rained on Aug. 28 only once in 20 years.
Do watch the speech tonight. It’s 10-11 p.m. EST. It will be historic, rain or shine.
