...comprise an even smaller proportion of the student body. For purely numerical reasons, these groups have a much harder time mobilizing their collective voices. One of the goals of an academic institution is to give students a better understanding of the components of our society and of the interactions therein. An agenda pushing for an isolationist Asian American studies program would undermine this goal. The most academically and politically balanced solution to this problem is in line with the suggestion of Crimson staff—that is, to create an entirely new discipline of ethnic studies that examines groups...
...Therein lies the weakness of the play: It demands very little from its audience. Sun criticizes teachers like Ms. Tam for entering the teaching profession with a mindset of self-sacrifice and a conviction that they can single-handedly make a difference in students’ lives. It’s a vision that is grossly ignorant of the reality of a world in which gangs murder students’ siblings and grandparents stand in for absent mothers and long-gone fathers...
...Therein may lie France's return to global glory. The country's angry, ambitious minorities are committing culture all over the place. France has become a multiethnic bazaar of art, music and writing from the banlieues and disparate corners of the nonwhite world. African, Asian and Latin American music get more retail space in France than perhaps any other country. Movies from Afghanistan, Argentina, Hungary and other distant lands fill the cinemas. Authors of all nations are translated into French and, inevitably, will influence the next generation of French writers. Despite all its quotas and subsidies, France is a paradise...

Such a system, by funneling most health care spending into the public sector, eliminates the private sector, and thus inequity. Millionaires, they beam, have to wait in the same lines for surgery as janitors. It is egalitarian. And therein lies its problem...
...Therein lies another major problem: Carrying out extensive surveys on animals that have learned to hide from humans isn't cheap. Though the conservation movement in Vietnam isn't exactly red-hot, scientists don't have the cold hard cash to fund one either. Local conservation groups can't afford to commit the time and staff needed for intensive inspections of far-flung forest nooks where a few dozen nocturnal tree-dwelling creatures might be hanging out. And in many primate conservation hot spots around the world - mostly developing countries with limited resources - the health and safety of humans naturally...
