Since its inception, the Foundation has raised nearly $280 million to support research at medical institutions across the globe conducting the most advanced and promising breast cancer research that will help lead to prevention and a cure in our lifetime. To date, nearly $28 million has been directed to stellar scientists at New England medical institutions, and in October 2009, $3.5 million was awarded to 24 distinguished researchers from prominent institutions in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire. Today, Boston and the New England area have the second largest concentration of BCRF grantees. BCRF perseveres in directing 85 cents of every dollar raised directly to research. And for the eighth consecutive year, BCRF received Charity Navigator's highest rating, four stars, thus outperforming over 99.8% of the more than 5,400 evaluated charities, while the American Institute of Philanthropy has awarded BCRF its highest possible rating of A+. BCRF is the only breast cancer organization in the U.S. to receive these accolades. For more information, visit www.bcrfcure.org or call 1.866.FIND.A.CURE.

  • When Red Sox Best Harvard
    When Red Sox beat Harvard The Liability of High Status, Why it Occurs, and Why it Matters by Eli Burstein Advisor: Professor Andrei Markovits Department of Political Science Department of Sociology Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures 0 Abstract This thesis analyzes the liabilities of high status through the lens of the 2012 Massachusetts election, with a sharp focus on the 20% of voters that split their ticket between Democrat Barack Obama for President and Republican Scott Brown for Senate. Given that the most popular framework for analyzing the transmission between status and power—Cultural Capital—does not factor in this liability, I introduce a modified term—Cultural Currency—to define the variety of criteria groups may utilize to determine how given dispositions, values, lifestyles, and tastes lead to a given level of power in a given field. I then discuss the mechanism—a Horizontal Power Setting—which determines the extent to which the dominant Cultural Currency in the field actually dictates the transmission between various permutations of habitus and power in a field. Given that an election is a field in which all members are granted equal power with regards to the franchise, elections are one such example of a Horizontal Power Setting. Through content analysis of candidate stump speeches, debates, campaign e-mails and newspaper articles, I describe why voters who shared Warren’s political platforms, but did not share Warren’s Cultural Currency, were socially incentivized to vote for Obama and Brown. Given this analysis, I present a model of voting which, unlike previous models, factors in the social impact of one’s voting preference.
