Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (R‐N.Y), chair of the Science Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives, said on October 1 that while the tragic airplane attacks in New York City and on the Pentagon change the nation's priorites in many ways, U.S. research and development and education needs remain much the same as they had been before. Boehlert, speaking in Washington, D.C. to campus presidents of the State University of New York, argued against fundamental changes in the structure or nature of U.S. academic institutions, such as restricting their openness to students, instructors, and researchers from overseas.
