This hypothetical (but possible) selection of wines -- all American, all good -- is singular in one respect. Not one of the wines is a product of California or New York, although these two rank first and a distant second among the nation's winemaking states. The sparkling aperitif comes from Idaho, the white wine from New Mexico, the red from Texas and the dessert wine from Pennsylvania...
Indeed, AALARM is a unique group at Harvard. We have a singular message of faith and morality. But, where free speech is concerned, difference is no excuse for silence.
