She was on campus yesterday but had to leave... one would assume to be officially selected tomorrow! As we'd say at Bryn Mawr, "Anassa Kata" Drew!

Anyway, for all of Larry Summers's intellectual brilliance and his experience in economics posts, his political skills were clearly sub-par for running Harvard. And the Wikipedia entry for Neil Rudenstine, Summers's predecessor as Harvard president, characterized his tenure this way: [Rudenstine] was known as a very mild-mannered president, supporting the arts and humanities and generally avoiding internal controversy, usually taking a hands-off approach to leading the university (all in sharp contrast to his successor, Larry Summers). So it seems that Harvard has had different types of presidents before. And it's not like a Harvard president has to be a colorful mega-personality.

Once again, a successful woman is being denied her success by turning her into a token. NOW, shame on you! I find it disturbing that no one is talking about her qualifications.

NOW, shame on you!
