Though less well-endowed than Boston, these cities reveal a more advanced understanding of the pay-off from thriving universities. States like Colorado, Ohio, Michigan and Arizona have created so-called “university-business-state road maps” to maximize the potential of in-state research institutions. Massachusetts has not. Others are coming after our students, our faculty and our research dollars. When will we wake...

"Using forestry practices to mimic these fires is O.K., but if you mimic fires outside that forest's experience, then I think you're doing the forest harm...
