Summers, who was one of Harvard's leading public finance professors before taking a series of jobs that led to him being appointed deputy secretary of the Treasury, to someday return here to teach? How about Secretary of Labor Robert B. Reich? Harvard's international reputation would not suffer from the homecoming of these other notables...
