<p>Maryc,</p>
<p>Actually it appears that their view is a bit more nuanced than that. 2 things:</p>
<ul>
<li>They have not asked that she not speak, just that she not be awarded an honorary doctorate. (The first paragraph of the most recent article seems to have changed the original request but note the later paragraph on the arm-band, no honorary doctorate is their message).</li>
<li>Clearly there are those that support her speaking, i.e. Father Leahy.</li>
</ul>
<p>I suspect that there are more Republicans on the BC faculty than at Harvard. I wonder what the response would have been there.</p>
