...position to demonstrate the sincerity of their objections to “don’t ask, don’t tell.” In this matter they could take a lesson from the signatories of the anti-Israel divestment petition, who find Israel’s policies racist, colonial, apartheid and any number of equally nasty adjectives. Now most of us have the good sense to see that these charges are utterly wrong. But the Israel-bashers are at least consistent: If you think Israel’s actions are reprehensible, you ought not to have dealings with...

However, in this case, Harvard’s efforts seem to be myopic and misguided. ROTC is not a company or agency engaging in racist or discriminatory practices for the sake of an exclusionary agenda; nor is it really comparable. ROTC is a bureau of our nation’s military, undertaking the difficult task of building a bridge between the armed forces and the world of academia. ROTC should receive the full support...
