...course, reprinted articles are not automatically uninteresting or inappropriate for the handbook. Dean Epps's essay, although it does little more than simply applaud the progress of racial interaction at the College, does shed some light on Harvard's history of exclusion.

So long as the position of middle-class Americans cannot be credibly portrayed as threatened by immigration, then this country's borders will remain open to legal immigrants. We applaud the committee in the House of Representatives for splitting HR 2202 into two separate bills dealing with legal and illegal immigrants. According to the Urban Institute, 95 percent of non-refugee immigrants never go on welfare, and legal immigrants contribute $25 billion more in taxes than they take away...
