Home Directory Permissions

Running Ubuntu 6.10 and LTSP5.  I've noticed that all of the folders in
the /home directory are readable by other users.  Why is this?  Can I
change that so only the owners can read, write, and execute files in
their own home directory?  Will this affect anything system wide?  How
do I go about doing this (chmod ?)
