...benefits of large courses extend beyond the great minds that they can attract. These types of classes provide a large portion of the student body with a common intellectual experience that spills out of Sanders and into dining halls and dorm rooms across campus.

So far, though, President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed and his government, led by Prime Minister Ali Mohammed Ghedi, haven't even made it home. Holed up in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, many of the new Somali M.P.s - and even the new President himself - privately say they will...
