courant.com | Ethics Law Needs Retooling

courant.com | Ethics Law Needs Retooling: "Rachel Rubin is right about one thing: As interpreted by the Office of State Ethics, a law passed last year banning gifts to public officials promises to put a severe crimp in the flow of philanthropy enjoyed by state-run schools and colleges.
