'Path to 9/11' leads straight to debacle

Europe moves into the immigration lane
September 6In less than 100 years, the flow of people coming in and out of Europe has been reversed. After years of being a net exporter, Europe has turned into the world's most diverse recipient of people. Today, Europeans collectively enjoy an unprecedented state of welfare, opportunity, and stability. These advantageous conditions have inevitably drawn many newcomers to countries such as Spain, France, Italy, England, and Germany. The boosters of immigration proclaim that non-European immigrants are making a significant contribution to the greatness of Europe. However, last year's London bombings and recent riots in Paris suggest that Europe is facing a crisis of integration, particularly Muslim integration.

Welcome to the jungle; we take it day by day
August 28Good morning, Jumbos! It's a beautiful day in Medford: The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the Malden is like a mirror. (In a few short weeks, of course, this will be because the river will have frozen over.)

A new approach to academic integrity?
April 30For years, Tufts' policy on plagiarism has consisted of little more than "eyes on your own paper" and "cite references properly."

The most-needed renovation
April 26Karen and Dan Pritzker pledged $5 million in 2002 to promote diversity at Tufts. When their pledge was matched by other Tufts donors, they made a second pledge of $5 million, bringing the Pritzker Challenge Gift to a total of $15 million.
Editorial
Discard Rummy
April 23Comparing the current conflict in Iraq to the Vietnam War has been, since the war's outset in 2003, a simplistic, weak argument against American intervention in Mesopotamia. The dissimilarities are too abundant, and the bloodshed hasn't been even close to comparable.
Editorial
Hold jobs, not signs
April 22It is clear to nearly everyone that Europe is in desperate need of economic reform. With three of the founding members of the Union - France, Germany and Italy - in turmoil, it is time for Europe to take decisive action, but there seems to be no consensus on the proper course to take.
Editorial
Hedging of principles on both sides
April 20The Judy-Miller-Valerie-Plame-Scooter-Libby controversy is as convoluted as it is important. As was explored in this week's "Miller the Martyr?" series, a great deal of hedging of principles has gone on from a surprising variety of people on both sides of the political aisle.

Goodbye, Berlusconi blues
April 19Though Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has yet to officially concede defeat, farewell speeches cannot come soon enough. Perennially one of Europe's weakest links, Italy must overcome its political and economic woes.

A reluctant endorsement of Robinson
April 18In most Tufts student elections, voting rates do not eclipse the 40 percent barrier. Given the poor quality of the platforms endorsed by the candidates running for TCU president tomorrow, we won't be surprised if the number is even lower.

A step in the 'rights' direction

Why wait to celebrate?
April 11Fortunately, each of the 14 pens used to sign yesterday's Massachusetts health care bill will be more consequential than the one that Governor Mitt Romney used to block eight items from the original version. The Massachusetts legislature will almost undoubtedly hurdle the roadblock that Romney has placed on the path to universal health care.

Romney's health care plan makes economic sense
April 9Health care is a perennial problem that needs an innovative solution. While one may disagree with Mitt Romney's attempt to increase insurance coverage, the latest push for reform is a step in the right direction.

The White House's distaste for disclosure
April 9Here's a statement made Sunday by a prominent senator in regard to the Valerie Plame leak: "We ought to get to the bottom of it so it can be evaluated, again, by the American people." Nothing particularly controversial there. For the nearly three years since Plame's job with the CIA was revealed in the Washington Post's pages by Robert Novak, Democrats have been repeating variations of that line.
