...Mass. Hall should err on the side of releasing too much information, not too little. Compile transcripts of Summers’ remarks at small conferences such as the Native American studies conference last September, and release them immediately. Put updated Allston planning maps on the web, no matter how rough they may be. Have the Curricular Review open and post committee meeting notes. Or, if that’s a little too controversial, at least release the (long-completed) General Education committee report. I bet we’ll discover a University president working hard in a sincere effort...

The jolt was particularly rough on the export-driven economies of the Pacific Basin. In Taiwan, which depends on the American market to absorb nearly half its exports, growth in the production of goods and services, adjusted for inflation, has fallen from 10.9% in 1984 to a projected 4.2% this year. Over the same period, Singapore's rate of expansion...
