Though I did write some of the code in the program, the bulk of it was written by the other members of our voting team--Robert A. Eikel '97, Susan M. Groppi '98, Ken E. Miller '98 and Ken Shan '99. Without their dedication as evidenced by long hours and many late nights, we would never have had such an easy-to-use, highly configurable program. --Robert J. Klein...
...moves, the Israelis have increased their intelligence gathering and are planning and rehearsing their responses to a Syrian offensive. In addition to taking regular troops through their paces, as in the two major tank exercises held recently, commanders are perfecting plans to call up reserves, who make up the bulk of the military.

Without denigrating the work of this group or any other group dedicated to activism, there is a significant difference between social activism and social service. Writing letters protesting human rights violations does not provide the same qualitative experience to the volunteer as actual, direct contact with the beneficiary or "client." Although worthy and important, a group such as Amnesty International should not be classified as social...
