Until now they reported on homosexuality not as an intrinsic evil but as a simple data point while addressing a candidate's psychosexual maturity.

Malkin Professor of Public Policy Robert D. Putnam may be a trailblazer in this regard. Sold at the Coop (and printed by XanEdu) last year, Putnam’s coursepack this semester can be ordered exclusively online, and it comes from University Readers, a company that clears copyrights, prints, and distributes coursepacks all from under one roof.
