...These days there isn?t a chief executive on the planet who isn't conscious of the extent to which terrorism can completely reshape, if not destroy a company - even an entire industry. The big question: what can a CEO do about it? That?s what a gathering of top executives met to discuss at a Fortune Magazine conference on leadership in New York this week, and their conclusions were not encouraging. When you?re in a fixed - and very high cost - business, like airlines for instance, you can't afford not to know when or where...
...contrast to these naïve efforts, Schneider’s prints capture motion. The hands and lips glow to the extent that they were pressed against the negative. Some are incandescent and pulse with life, as if trying to burst out of the glass; one from a two-year old boy sits curled and silent like a raccoon’s paw, taking up almost no space on the black matte.

Dismissal is just as extreme an action in terms of severing someone’s ties with Harvard, and though the text in the handbook makes it seem like a dismissed student could possibly return, that really wouldn’t happen in all likelihood...
Further, it would be a large stretch to assert that the sculpture itself (to whatever extent it can be appreciated by a pedestrian) resembles much more than a heap of garbage—albeit a colorful heap of garbage. The Crimson’s editorial page noted as much with the pithy assessment that the sculpture “looks like trash to us.” It is hard to disagree with this appraisal, and if one tries to argue that the sculpture must be looked at more closely to be appreciated, then that negates the entire purpose...
