...more can be done. We do not expect the HUPD to eliminate crime in Cambridge, nor do we assume that as Harvard students we will be sheltered from the realities of city life. Nonetheless, the administration and the police department must try harder. From most locations on campus, blue light emergency phones cannot be seen. We have repeatedly called for better lighting on campus. The intense bulbs that light up the Yard like the noonday sun during Commencement Week quickly disappear when the wealthy alumni and expensive chairs depart. House security guards are on duty from...
Chiseled over the Dexter Gate to Harvard Yard on Mass. Ave. is a surprising inscription. On the street side, the inscription reads "Enter to Grow in Wisdom"--nothing terribly shocking for a University. But the message written on the Yard side of the gate betrays its age: "Depart to Serve Better Thy Country and Thy Kind."

And the federal judiciary, which long staked its authority on the enforcement of desegregation orders, appears eager to depart the field. Chris Hansen of the American Civil Liberties Union in New York City observes, "The courts are saying, 'We still agree with the goal of school desegregation, but it's too hard, and we're tired of it, and we give...
