Harvard has a curious way of demonstrating its commitment to national defense. Colinear with an ostensible commitment to just this goal, Harvard is one of the American colleges most opposed to entertaining any semblance of a military presence inside its gates. The tradition started in 1969 when the University administration crumbled under the pressure of antiwar protestors and ejected the Reserve Officers Training Corp (ROTC) from campus.

...faced down adversity and broke the glass ceiling at that historically single-sex institution, Radcliffe. But the truth is that I’ve faced few real obstacles, nor have I done much more than be a consistent and fairly effective fundraiser. People tend to be a little curious about my job—“Do you only call women?”—but it’s to the credit of the Phonathon and Radcliffe as a whole that I’ve always felt perfectly comfortable at work, despite my gender and Radcliffe?...

...somewhat unusual diagonal turquoise stripe on my FCUK hat. Maybe she doesn’t like guys who FCUK…maybe she just doesn’t like guys. In a controversial decision, I decided to stay, testing the outer limits of their possible disgust. I was curious as to the content of their furtive whispers. What could they be discussing that was at the same time so enthralling and so off-limits...
