Dear Art, the five Princeton grads you call “exemplary” are examples, but not good models. They all exemplify power-grasping character of the age of American robber barons, often the product of business and law schools. (Princeton has neither.) We are entering a new age where the goal of educated adults should not be riches, but rather getting to know and getting along with the Brazilians, Russians, Indians, Chinese, and South Africans (the BRICS group) as part of “the family of man.”
