...Sept. 11 effect was far more subtle and far more profound. It returned America to a world of danger, a world we thought we had escaped, perhaps for good, with the end of the cold war. For two generations after the late 1930s, Americans faced one great existential threat after another--world war, cold war, the threat of nuclear war.

Also, no one is requiring any of Harvard’s world-class musicians or hard-working newspaper editors to take time off from their favored activities to spend seven weeks running or lifting to better appreciate campus life. In fact, I doubt anyone on this campus could take such a proposal seriously...
