The failure of HUPD to allow access to its records compromises our ability to investigate and report on issues of sexual assault and racial profiling, among other matters on the Harvard campus.

They had what Marissa Dagdagan, 28, a daughter of Filipino-born doctors, who grew up in Burr Ridge, Ill, says...
...would attack him for his opinions as a judge, particularly a 1991 dissenting opinion in which he defended a Pennsylvania law that said a woman must notify her husband before she has an abortion. Democrats also seized on Alito's record of ruling against employees who allege gender or racial discrimination. They were alarmed too by the 1985 Justice Department application and wondered why Alito said he was opposed to Supreme Court decisions in the 1960s promoting reapportionment, which was designed to ensure fairer representation of urban minorities...
