Such accountability, as well as more transparency and oversight, can be achieved through converting the HCC into a democratic body. A democratic process will encourage student polling and campus-wide research before multi-thousand dollar projects are undertaken. We disagree with McCambridge, who in response to criticisms that the HCC should have polled prior to pursuing Wyclef, only replied that, “It hadn’t been done before.” Instead, the HCC opted to survey student interest based on anecdotal evidence and informal chats. It comes as little surprise that the HCC failed to satisfy...
...Kennedy Jr. Forum. ElBaradei said that the current non-proliferation program is rife with problems that render efforts to stifle nuclear development very difficult. “If we look at the system now, I think it is a dysfunctional system,” ElBaradei said. He said a multi-national effort is central to his vision of successful implementation of the United Nations’ non-proliferation treaty. “We need to resign ourselves to the fact that we need to work as one human family,” he said. “In terms...

There he also helped rewrite the protocol for treating multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis and pioneered several medical practices at the time deemed hopelessly quixotic--such as giving impoverished AIDS patients first-line antiretroviral drugs (ARVs)--that have since been widely adopted...
...whatever is necessary, for as long as it takes, to identify and ruthlessly eliminate the cancer: intensify surveillance, run multi-million-dollar recruitment and information campaigns, tighten immigration and deportation rules, increase penalties across the board - but leave the pillars of Western civilization alone. They survived Hitler and a thousand would-be tyrants before him; trust them to survive the latest wave of murdering nihilists. These principles cannot easily be destroyed from outside, but they can be timidly surrendered, with consequences yet unknown. It's fair to assume politicians believe that they are acting in Australia's best interests...
