Political Quotes

The dean of career services told the Air Force JAG: He stated that the faculty had still not decided whether to allow us to participate in on-campus interviews. . . . I asked him if I could at least post a job posting via their office and he said no. The Army was blunt in their afteraction report: The Army was stonewalled at Harvard. Phone calls and e- mails went unanswered and the standard response was--``We're waiting to hear from our higher authority.'' That certainly would appear to be Dean Kagan, who had reversed the policy, personally. This is what the veterans group said when Dean Kagan reversed the policy and said: We want you to help take care of the military. We are not going to let them in our office. They are not worthy to be in our office. This is what they wrote and sent an e-mail to all the students: Given our tiny membership, meager budget, and lack of 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 HLS Office of Career Services. To claim that 2005 had increased recruiting is inaccurate.
