  • Although data for this year is not yet available, more than half of Credit/D/Fail course registrations were changed to letter grades during the 2010-’11 academic year, said Rebecca Friedkin, a senior researcher at the Office of Institutional Research.
  • After making it through the local, regional and state auditions, Ward 16 Alderwoman Migdalia Castro — an American of Puerto Rican descent — will be the sole Northeastern bacholerette on the Spanish-language Telemundo dating show “12 Corazones.”
