...language that Gere did not understand: His dance move and smooch on the cheek went way beyond what is acceptable, at least according to India's Hindu nationalists who claim that Shetty has dishonored her culture. Protestors burned Gere and Shetty in effigy, and now plan to lodge a complaint against Shetty with the police. "How much can you degrade yourself because you are being paid money to make an appearance?" asked Sumit Mishra, of the youth wing of the Hindu nationalist BJP party in the state of Bhopal. As a foreigner, said Mishra, Gere could be excused...
...intellectual-property abuse. In fact, the government recently declared March 15 to be Antipiracy Day, and there are still big billboards downtown urging everyone to combat the scourge of illegally copied software, DVDs and other products.

The only time health care and administration collide is when discussing leaves of absence, but virtually all medical leaves of absence are voluntary and examined calmly by only those who absolutely need to know about the situation...
...second complaint, that “Harvard’s mental health care system is inadequate,” should be taken more seriously. Problems occur when understaffing keeps students from timely appointments, and unqualified clinicians provide students with insufficient care. These problems are not due to a lack of good intentions from administrators within the health care system, but from lack of funding from University administrators to allow for a larger staff and to better assess of current staff. Resources need to be expanded and better used. Mental health clearly needs to be a bigger priority on campus...
