...stock up than face uncertainty." And stocking up they are. Egged on by Russian television stations gleefully portraying imminent price increases as punishment for E.U. accession, Latvians stripped their store shelves bare of salt, buying more in a day than previously in an entire month. The Estonians followed suit, fearing the price of salt would triple or quadruple. Yevgeni Boldyrev of the Tallinn-based grocery supplier Haljas Company told Vesti, Russian State Television's news program, that his company sold 2,000 tons of sugar in March, five times the normal amount.

In true Harvardian form, most students will rush off in six short weeks to don a suit and build their résumé at some ritzy New York financial institution, ready to be exploited for a pittance—all for the sake of a secured future. But though it’s certain to rouse some neurotic tendencies, Harvard students should realize that productive uses...
