...description of the kind of process women choosing to have an abortion go through, or another's recounting of her own shift from an anti-choice to a pro-choice position. Further, Pakaluk states "there was no discussion," attempting. I assume, to characterize the whole event as merely an RUS rally in support of destroying children. Well, there was discussion. People who were decidedly anti-choice attended and spoke their piece, as did others with differing views. The director of Massachusetts Citizens for Life fan anti choice group) was there, and he both praised the speakers and afterwards thanked...
...writing to alert the members of the Harvard community that there is an undergraduate organization that openly promotes, encourages, and applauds the killing of human beings as a means to attaining its ends.

The Crimson's characterization of my opinions is erroneous, and the RUS is doing a good service in promoting thoughtful discussion of this emotional issue whether or not the so-called "pro-life view is also represented."

...RUS urges the Faculty of Arts and Sciences to join its counterparts at the Law School and the Divinity School (where the faculties have already added the words sexual orientation to the non-discriminatory clauses) and adopt a clear policy of non-discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in admissions, hiring, and housing. At this point, it is important to add that the cities of Boston and Cambridge already have a comprehensive human rights ordinance which prohibits discrimination in the areas of community services, employment, and housing on the basis of a number of criteria--among them, sexual orientation...
