I thank the Senator. I would note that one of the arguments that has been made--and my time is about up--has been that: Well, nothing was really done at Harvard. We asked a veterans group, a veterans organization to take care of all of these things we were refusing to allow the military to have through the Career Services Office. And this is what the veterans group said at the time. They sent an e- mail to everybody on campus because it offended them that they were being asked to do a job that should have been done through the Career Services Office. They sent this e-mail: Given our tiny membership, meager budget, and lack of any office space, we possess neither the time nor the resources to routinely schedule campus rooms or advertise extensively for outside organizations, as is the norm for most recruiting events. . . . [Our effort] falls short of duplicating the excellent assistance provided by the Office of Career Services. So this argument has been repeatedly made: Don't worry about it; the veterans groups were taking care of all of this. It is bogus. It is incorrect. And she repeated that. I am not surprised to get that kind of statement from the White House spin doctors, but a nominee under oath---- The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Republican time has expired.
