They suggested that “the [Faculty of Arts and Sciences] expand its allocation of financial support, including summer grants, salaries, stipends and loans, in order to make it possible for all students to pursue at least one international experience.” Without money, there can be no staff support for students when they are at Harvard—current staff at OIP and the area studies centers are already overburdened—and no financial support once they are abroad...

This figure is in comparison to the 15 to 20 percent companies in Chile are charging their clients to maintain retirement accounts in the country’s privatized system. Moreover, despite its imperfections, the current system provides something privatization cannot: reliability. Just as stock markets rocket up, they also tumble down, often for years at a time...
