...Bohème,” in an unheated garrett, always behind on the rent. Investment bankers don’t have to go through those trials and tribulations, do they?Compared to the sciences or humanities, where Harvard’s ability to lay foundations for future success is relatively unquestioned, there are persistent doubts about the relevance or future value of a Visual and Environmental Studies (VES) education. A Crimson editorial, written two years ago by Andrew L. Kreicher ’06, denounced VES as “a concentration so unnecessary, ridiculous, and over-dramatized that...

...Missed Opportunity? As Nancy Gibbs put it, the city of new York prevented Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad from laying a wreath at ground zero because New Yorkers were revolted by "the prospect of a tyrant's hand touching sacred ground" [Oct. 8]. I do not want to discuss how many tyrants the U.S. has tolerated vs. how many it has fought. But wouldn't it have been good diplomatic form to have allowed Ahmadinejad to lay a wreath in honor of all the 9/11 victims killed by Islamic fanatics? What kind of impact would his gesture have made...
