Michigan State football grades: Not perfect, but good enough
Chris Solari Detroit Free Press Published 6:58 PM EDT Sep 21, 2019 EVANSTON, Ill. — Chris Solari rates Michigan State football on a scale of 1 to 10 after the Spartans’ 31-10 win in their Big Ten opener Saturday at Northwestern. Offense: 7 This looked much more like the improved production that was promised in the offseason. Despite just 337 total yards, MSU took advantage of good field position after an interception for a late first-half touchdown that shook the funk. The Spartans moved the ball against a good, veteran Northwestern defense in both the run game early and the pass game, with tight end Matt Seybert emerging as the red-zone target Brian Lewerke has been seeking.

MIT president Rafael Reif is suddenly at the center of a storm
The university that Reif, 69, came to nearly 40 years ago is in turmoil over its extensive and secretive ties to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein committed suicide in the Manhattan jail cell where he was being held on charges of sex trafficking minors. At MIT, Reif is at the center of the storm: criticized for his shifting and confusing explanations about his own knowledge of Epstein’s connections to the revered institution and, more broadly, for overseeing a campus culture uninviting to women. Some students and faculty have demanded that he resign. “If I were him, I would step aside for the good of the institute,” said Leigh Royden, a geology and geophysics professor, who has taught at MIT for 35 years and was involved in a seminal 1999 university report on the status of women faculty in science. “He has lost our trust. He has lost his moral voice. And there’s no going back from that.” But his supporters, and there are many at MIT … [Read more...] about MIT president Rafael Reif is suddenly at the center of a storm
