Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Some days are about precision. Equations. Models.
Others are messier. Louder. More human.
Both end in notes scrawled in the margins.
