His intentions were genuine, and his approach—to address a pressing issue with proactive analysis and creative solutions rather than idle talk and reliance on old thinking??was ideal, if poorly executed in this isolated case.His regrettable and oft-publicized remark aside, Summers applied the same approach of intellectual provocation throughout his stewardship of the University, and with great success.
