...employer, D.N.A-People's Legal Services, a legal aid organization on the Navajo Indian Reservation, sent me to recruit and interview law students at Harvard and a number of other law schools in the Boston area. D.N.A. has recruited on campus at the Law School for many years and a great number of attorneys who have worked on this program over the years, including myself, graduated from Harvard Law School...
...jobs, the D.N.A. recruiter had a full day scheduled at Harvard, which resulted in the hiring of two summer clerks and myself. Last fall we also spoke to a large number of Harvard students. But programs like this one, with little or no funds for publicity, doing vital legal aid work in parts of the country of which many people have never heard, cannot hope to attract a large number of applicants from schools like Harvard unless the schools help make our existence known to interested students...

George Bush journeyed to San Salvador as Vice President in 1983 to tell its leaders that the U.S. was prepared to drop aid to the country if they did not act against the death squads. He could make the same speech today. The country's center, enfeebled by vast poverty and the effects of a decade of war, is crumbling under the prodding of the offensive. The future for El Salvador looks to be a free-for-all between a buoyant and rearmed F.M.L.N. and generals willing to make the country a boneyard...
