An Unwise Hurdle To Study Abroad
To the editors:
Re “Report Urges Study Abroad” (News, Apr. 8):
I would love to study abroad myself, if I could go to the country of my choice—for which I have studied the language and am interested in living—and that happens to be Israel. Of course, Harvard unilaterally prohibits accepting credit or giving out funds for any country on the State Department list of travel advisories, no matter how safe or unsafe that country is. This method disregards countries with diverse regions, individual responsibility for liability, and one’s individual course of study—all of which generate experiences with varying degrees of safety.
