...academic/extracurricular/social life is a shambles. It’s hard to get to the games for Harvard’s sports teams or to student arts performances during interminable stretches of midterms and reading period. But it’s also really hard to live on a campus where mental health and stress issues are endemic and the closest approximation we have for school-wide community are late-night crowds at Lamont...
...Dickensian Dodger, but it would be wrong to mistake their ingenuity for anything other than desperation, social workers say. Like those to whom the travel ads all around the airport appeal, Heathrow's homeless are also in search of escape: from debts, legal problems, family responsibilities. They often have mental health or substance abuse problems, and they often refuse help.

Millions of Iraqi lives will have been ripped apart, socially and financially. The authority of the United Nations and multilateral institutions to increase international peace, so painstakingly built up by the blood and hopes of our grandparents, will have been severely weakened...
...taken the lead in trying to make sure that family medical leave benefits go to families who have troops overseas that the law didn't cover. I've tried to pass legislation that would make sure that every time one of these troops comes home, they get a baseline mental and physical health check-up and evaluation, so when they come back later and say they don't feel well, it isn't "Well that couldn't be from your war experience." This has been a problem with regard to Agent Orange from Vietnam, Gulf War Syndrome from the first...
