Improving Harvard College and Graduate School Discipline
In the aftermath of the 2024 Harvard Yard encampment, an ad hoc Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS) committee has proposed key reforms to disciplinary processes at Harvard College and GSAS. The committee recommends increasing ladder faculty involvement, creating a new appeals mechanism staffed by experienced faculty, and strengthening training and transparency within the Administrative Boards. Emphasizing a restorative rather than punitive model, the report calls for adjudicating based on student behavior, not speech content or motivations. FAS Dean Hopi Hoekstra endorsed the recommendations, aiming to rebuild trust in a system strained by protests, confusion, and inconsistent outcomes.

Yoga better than a sleep pill for insomnia: What are takeaways from a Harvard study? - Simple routines can help you fall asleep faster
Harvard Medical School clinical trials, in collaboration with PGI Chandigarh, found that yoga and meditation significantly improve sleep in people with chronic insomnia—often outperforming sleep medication. Led by Dr. Sat Bir Singh Khalsa, the study showed yoga enhances sleep efficiency, duration, and reduces stress, awakenings, and sleep latency. Yoga calms the nervous system, lowers stress hormones, and boosts melatonin levels through techniques like pranayama and Shambhavi mudra. Dr. Khalsa recommends integrating deep breathing, mindfulness, and poses like the bridge pose, ideally paired with cognitive behavioral therapy, as a drug-free sleep solution.
