...passed a law imposing penalties ranging from 20 years in jail to death for skyjacking, but few are caught-and none has been returned by Castro.

Is Harvard in any way to grant support for such dangerous policy? There seems at the moment every reason to believe that in issues far greater in scope and significance than the one at hand, Harvard's administration and faculty will act not only to support, but to further such...
