...make do with whoever walks in the door,” De La Rosa wrote on his Web site. “We will look at resumes, examine records of accomplishment, and train well to ensure cohesion.” But Sams called De La Rosa’s approach to student government “autocratic.” “Mine is an open-door policy to include the many different initiatives, ideas, and opinions of students,” Sams contended. The Crimson was unable to reach Gonzalez, the third presidential candidate, for this story...

My.harvard—which Harvard somehow thinks is wonderful and responding to student needs—should not be supported by giving students no other alternatives. Harvard should be impressed that students have created a portal that...
