For me, as for most of my Harvard compatriots, the long, probing, in-depth discussions I’d heard were one of the best parts of college have been limited to topics like Youtube and the weather. When it comes to politics, every discussion is just a group of people agreeing with each other. This applies to campus conservatives as well:. Those comfortable enough in their...
...agents, investors and home buyers. When J.D. Bondurant, a research analyst at the Virginia Housing Development Authority, was given the job of understanding which parts of the state were being hit hardest by foreclosure, he called First American CoreLogic, a highly regarded data aggregator that covers 3,000 counties in-depth and counts lenders, investors and ratings agencies among its clients.

Indeed, the disjointed nature of the book often makes it difficult to ascertain what exactly Stoll’s argument is. He doesn’t quite engage...
...Maybe this [crisis] will force a number of the business schools, including our own, to rethink whether we should make this part of the complete requirements," says Federgruen, referring to in-depth risk-management coursework, "rather than just counting on the students themselves to understand that this is material that they'd better learn...
