Having touched on the systemic roots of sexual harassment. I think it appropriate to mention some possible ways to alleviate the situation at Harvard University. Clearly, no solution will be found without large-scale education. These educational efforts must be twofold: first, some demystification of sexual harassment (i.e. sexual harassment, like rape, is primarily an issue of power, not of sexual attraction); second, information concerning the procedure for lodging formal complaints of sexual harassment must be broadly known and disseminated.

The attackers were part of the 4,000-member Revolutionary Democratic Alliance (A.R.D.E.), whose leader is Eden Pastora Gomez, a famed defector from the ranks of Nicaragua's Sandinista government.

Minority students have repeatedly cited the low number of minority faculty...

The Nestle boycott bought forward the importance of a moral stance in the face of capital list interests. The inspiration for the collective action was a simple moral repudiation of Nestle's marketing activities. The idea of compromise or negotiation did not enter the picture. By raising the conflict from dollars to morals, the coalition forced Nestle to see that profits are not everything, not even to a profit...
