...class existence. Nor does he bear any resemblance to certain Cold War-era spies, who served communist ideology out of some sort of (misplaced) idealism. It was rather the opposite with him.

The movie doesn't say, but one rather thinks that, in his arrogance, he did not. It doesn't toy with the possibility that he may have wanted to be caught, either...

Far from forging valuable links within and without the classroom, this proposal would only get in the way. If there are in fact links to be forged, Harvard students are smart enough to forge them on their own without the “help” of papers or assignments. And if the student in question was drawn to an extracurricular expressly to escape academics, so much the worse. In fact, the only thing that such a policy would accomplish would...
