...shake hands with the Argentine general commanding the invaders, an attitude, his adversary said, that he found "very ungentlemanly."

In the end, the accountability for this culture of careerism rests with us, the students. Traveling and research fellowships abound, but they receive far fewer applications than Morgan Stanley, in part because no one knows about them, but also because they can’t compare to a coveted step up the corporate ladder. Volunteer programs, summer school, Harvardwood: The alternatives to office work are there, but seem unable to generate enthusiasm like i-banking...
