Short Answer

Kim's decision to streamline the administrative structure at Dartmouth represents a positive step forward in dealing with the financial crisis.

Constructive Criticism

I think that I will spark little controversy by describing Dartmouth's environment as pluralistic and academic. Our college brings together people who differ in every respect of geography and circumstance and encourages them to engage substantively with ideas and to pursue knowledge.

I doubt that anyone will bother to dispute these observations. But I would like to raise a more controversial question: What happens when our academic pursuit of knowledge collides with our pluralism?
