Universities rarely report their researchers' financial conflicts of interest to the government as is required for government-funded research, according to a Department of Health and Human Services report issued on Thursday. The report found that universities that do report research conflicts often do not take steps to minimize or eliminate them, and 90 percent of universities rely exclusively on researchers to self-report any potential conflicts. Federal regulations require universities to report and work to minimize any identified conflicts to ensure the objectivity and value of the research. Although hundreds of universities receive research funding from the National Institutes of Health, only 41 reported researchers' financial conflicts. The report is leading some officials to question universities' ability to monitor their researchers themselves, The New York Times reported.

Stereotypes, regardless of their validity, have to start somewhere.
Coming from a city where it's actually illegal not to recycle and where being a tree-hugger is considered a compliment, I was ready to ride my symbolic donkey across the country and stand up against the moneyed men of Dartmouth in the name of liberalism upon my matriculation at the College.
