The upshot: Stanford's placement rate at graduation was near the bottom of the Top 25 (22nd overall), and more recruiters dropped the school from their 1998 schedules than any other.

 Anthrax threat needs aggressive government action plan, say researchers
Wein, who is professor of operations, information and technology at the Business School, and his fellow researchers considered the possibility that drug intervention against anthrax could start earlier if the attack was detected by biosensors — devices that sniff out anthrax spores.
Although the federal government is spending many millions of dollars to develop biosensors, their use alone is insufficient and could create a false sense of security, says Wein.
They analyzed a variety of possible responses to a scenario in which two pounds of anthrax are dropped in a city of 11 million people (the approximate size of New York City) and 1.5 million are infected.
