That was the theme, implicit or explicit, of comments around the world last week. Foreign government and financial leaders have an all-important stake in U.S. economic policy. The worldwide market crack is already hurting their economies; for example, it has delayed European programs to privatize industry by selling chunks of government-owned companies to individual investors. An American recession, should that be the result of a continued stock slump, could quickly travel abroad...
...implicit message to the student is that iresponsibility and immaturity can go virtually unpunished as far as Harvard is concerned. First, it is ludicrous to think that after the attack on the building and the threatening phone call, the individual victim would find an additional phone call a "light-hearted joke."

There is a note of alarm, even shame, and a growing tone of impatience...
