Macroeconomic decisions are usually informed by THE CASE FOR SMALLER CLASSES The study was carried out in three kinds of groups: small class size (13 to 17 students); regular class size (22 to 25) with a teacher’s aide; and regular class size without a teacher’s aide.

SHORT-TERM INCREASES IN AIR POLLUTION LINKED TO SEVERAL Now a study of 95 million Medicare hospitalization claims from 2000 to 2012 links as many as 12 additional diseases, including kidney failure, urinary tract and blood infections, and fluid and electrolyte disorders, to such fine-particle air pollution for the first time. The research demonstrates that even small, short-term increases in DAVID CUTLER ON TRIMMING U.S. HEALTHCARE COSTS Spending on health care is central to the long-term budgetary challenges. So it is especially useful to pair their essay with David Cutler’s nuanced explanations of why American health care costs so much: about $3.5 trillion per year (that’s the norm, before an emergency like COVID-19)—of which one-third is wasted.HARVARD MAGAZINE

FINE-TUNING ACUPUNCTURE TO HEAL, NOT HARM “Fine-tuning” an ancient practice to heal, not harm. Inflammation can both heal and harm. A core component of the immune system, it’s essential for recovering from an injury or infection—but too much can contribute to diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, cancer, and other serious illnesses.

CHA YEN THAI COOKERY New England winters seem made for Thai basil. Fiercer than its Italian cousin, this purple-stemmed variety has a slight anise flavor and spicy kick that warms the entire body. It stars in the wide-noodle kee mao and saucy eggplant stir-fry at Watertown’s Cha Yen Thai Cookery, the shoebox-sized restaurant that has been turning diners into devotees since 2014.| HARVARD MAGAZINE
The Kyoto protocol is to date the only international agreement that calls for action to reduce emissions of CO 2. Yet the Harvard scientists and economists who study climate change express almost universal criticism of the accord, which they fault as economically inefficient, unobjective, inequitable, and worst of RUTIN, A SUBSTANCE FOUND IN APPLES, HAS POWERFUL Curbing Clots.

Miller ’56 in an interview with this magazine on the eve of his sixty-fifth reunion. “I was never too reluctant to express a different opinion.” In keeping with this ethos of his youth, Miller is the founder, editor, and PRESIDENT BACOW AND KEVIN YOUNG AT ANNUAL ALUMNI MEETING A colorful “pre-show,” complete with a virtual alumni parade, preceded the annual alumni association meeting.

Bacow announced an “initiative on Harvard and the legacy of slavery”—backed by $5 million in initial funding.

Within a month, relative to a control group, those workers lost an average of two pounds each, lowered their blood pressure by 10 points, and reduced their waist-to-hip ratio without changes in diet or workout. “It was all due to their simple change in mindset,” Langer explains, “now seeing ‘work’ as ‘exercise.’”. THE LONELINESS PANDEMIC Loneliness was rising even before the pandemic. “Modern progress has brought unprecedented advances that make it easier for us technically to connect,” writes Vivek Murthy in Together: The Healing Power of Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World, “but often these advances create unforeseen challenges that make us feel more alone anddisconnected.”
HARVARD COLLEGE ANNOUNCES CLASS OF 2025 ADMISSIONS Harvard admits a record-low 3.4 percent of applicants The College has admitted 1,968 of 57,435 applicants to the class of 2025 (745 of whom were admitted through early action in December). The 3.4 percent admit rate is the lowest in College history, down more than a percentage point from 4.9 percent last year—the arithmetical result of an enormous rise in the applicant pool, up more than 17,000. ALTERNATIVES TO POLICING Alternatives to Policing. Amid the protests last summer that followed George Floyd’s killing by Minneapolis police, three Boston City Council members proposed an ordinance to divert nonviolent 911 calls away from the Boston Police Department. Those calls—often involving mental-health emergencies, homelessness, substance use, and traffic THE CASE FOR SMALLER CLASSES The study was carried out in three kinds of groups: small class size (13 to 17 students); regular class size (22 to 25) with a teacher’s aide; and regular class size without a teacher’s aide. The study began in kindergarten and continued through the third grade. The children moved into regular-size classes in the fourth grade.
