[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read the response in the NYTimes and it really didn't say anything and seemed pretty noncommittal to me. It didn't say Sidwell should continue running the hospital. I don't see anything "ethical" involved here. The hospital is closing, it is not taking on new patients, existing ones will be rehoused elsewhere, assuming they are still alive in 21 months (sorry if I sounded cold but we all die someday). Sidwell is taking the land and building a school on it. Where's the ethical aspect of it?[/quote] I agree. The NYT column is pretty vague, but it seems Sidwell is doing exactly what the column suggested. Lots of the drama seems driven by the fact that *Sidwell* is involved here. If it had been No-Name Parochial School for Girls that purchased the property, none of the supposedly outraged posters would care, but because it's Sidwell, they're mad with rage.[/quote]
