...announcement of the cuts—which University President Drew G. Faust described in a complementary e-mail as "modest in comparison to the overall size of our University-wide staff, but nonetheless painful"—caps weeks of swirling speculation that Harvard would seek to conduct layoffs shortly after Commencement activities.

...rapidly emerged as an iconic symbol of the opposition's anguish over the unfolding crisis. "The whole world was mourning Neda as a martyr, the world was crying for her, but there was no word from [state media]," a resident of central Tehran wrote to me in an e-mail. "How shameful!"
