...fellow Police Officers take professional pride in being of service to the Harvard Community and in keeping Harvard a safe place to work and study. We encourage students to use the escort service and are gratified by its increase in demand.

It is true that Reagan has made it clear that he would appoint strict constructionists who believe in judicial restraint. But such philosophical criteria are nothing new. Presidents have tried to pick judges who read the Constitution their way since George Washington, who insisted on Federalists for his Supreme Court.
