...officer of the Harvard Union of Clerical and Technical Workers—which pegged Kidd as part of the anti-union administration. In 2005, Kidd’s relationship with student groups was again thrust into the spotlight after she threatened to shut down a planned student protest of the presence of CIA and Department of Homeland Security recruiters on campus, only to later abandon that position. But this past fall, Kidd reminded the student body of the College’s free speech protections after several members of the Harvard Right to Life group reported that their posters...

...Iranian delegation accosted Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor Elie Weisel, who was also scheduled to speak at the conference, calling him a “Nazi” and a “Zio-Nazi.” While several nations walked out of the conference in protest of Ahmadinejad’s antics, the fact that the conference’s leadership did not stop him from acting out and even gave Ahmadinejad the floor in the first place is disgraceful and damaging to the conference’s purported goal of combating racism...

This week, a panel of Harvard ROTC students and a student protest against Harvard’s refusal to officially recognize ROTC reminded the campus of Harvard’s troubled relationship with the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps.
