...attempts to woo industry through subsidies work so well. While Dresden has managed to reinvent itself as a micro-electronics "cluster," a similar attempt by the town of Frankfurt an der Oder failed. Around eastern Germany, there are numerous examples of industries without real prospects being kept alive artificially, complains Holznagel of the Taxpayers' Federation, citing tilemaking and leather-treatment plants on the Baltic coast.

Despite the outcry on campus through private and public e-mails from students, parents, faculty, and alumni, as yet, a week after the announced cuts, we have received no sign that the administration is listening. MIT is leading a similar budget-cut initiative and is trying to incorporate community feedback, even streamlining the process of recognizing the best ideas. Its website asks the MIT community to post suggestions to the “Idea Bank” and allows others to view these responses and rate the ones they find...
