Some Activities More Troubling Than West's

Letter to the editor

By William Doolittle

To the editors:

Now that University President Lawrence H. Summers is grilling professors on their outside activities, as he did to Fletcher University Professor Cornel R. West ’74 (News, “West Blasts Summers, Says Gates Likely to Go,” April 16), perhaps he will want to exhort the Business School professors about some of their choices. Doing outside work for the likes of Global Crossings, Waste Management, Enron, Arthur Anderson and a host of others might be worth a grilling. Or is the new president only interested in certain types of outside activities ?
