That, with the perimission of Dean Epps, ROTC held a drill in Harvard Hall this month cannot be argued. That gays are not welcome, nor are they even permitted at such drills cannot be argued. And that the University's Resolution on Rights and Responsibilities guaranteeing all students, including gay students, among other things, the freedom of speech, freedom personal force and freedom of movement, stands violated by the presence of such a group on our campus cannot be argued, nor can it be forgiven. The rights guaranteed all students and the worth of our non-discrimination policy...

...shock of Nov. 9, the day an embattled East German government allowed its people to cross their borders for at least a glimpse of the outside world, has yet to wear off. Those among the nearly 5 million people who, in little more than a week, made the journey cannot quite believe they did, and the faces of the thousands who pour through frontier crossings every day are bright with expectation.

(The law, needless to say, was framed to help undercapitalized businesses that cannot afford new tractors, not financiers who want to turn a Manet into a tax loss.)
