...common criticism of Megawati is that she hasn't done enough to make Indonesia a stable and safe place. Separatist movements still rage, and her administration is brutally suppressing one of them in the western province of Aceh. Her response to the threat of Islamic militancy has been perceived in some quarters as indecisive, even following the deadly Bali bomb blasts and last year's attack at the JW Marriott hotel in downtown Jakarta. She encouraged a competent and thorough investigation of the Bali bombings, which led to the arrests of more than 30 Muslim militants and key players...

With the curricular review in progress, the survey given to the Class of 2003 asked 40 of its 72 questions about the academic experience at the college. But while discussions rage about how the College’s academic program can be improved, most of the results of these survey questions remain hidden. When public discussion is well-informed, the community is much more likely to push for positive changes. Due to the existing antiquated policy, however, the senior survey data...
