Lehigh-Unilever Study Sheds Light on Mystery of Cloudy Wineglasses
Research led by Himanshu Jain, Diamond professor and chair of materials science and engineering at Lehigh that uncovers the mystery of cloudy wine glasses, continues to gain media focus. The problem, say materials scientists at Lehigh University, has nothing to do with your dishwasher or your standards of cleanliness.

Partners in Progress

A Web site devised to combat plagiarism on college campuses could revolutionize the way professors grade papers and, some say, radically change the relationship between students and faculty. The site, Turnitin.com, has attracted a following of academic heavyweights that includes Lehigh, Dartmouth, and Georgetown universities. ''This is a bad precedent to set. It creates a communal bin of suspicion,'' said Lehigh University adjunct English lecturer Stephan Tompkins, adding that the school has an honor code and plagiarism policies in place.

Colleges Consider Options to Limit Music Downloading
Colleges in the Lehigh Valley are taking measures to prevent student from downloading music online. At Lehigh University, students who exceed bandwidth allocation within 24 hours -- a sign that they are stockpiling songs -- risk losing full access to some sites, college spokesman Andrew Stanten said.
