"By any consistent standard, if Summers is unfit to work for each of these institutions [from which he resigned], he is equally unfit to teach at our school. Harvard should not be the only institution in America where Summers remains above reproach."

Summers should choose the most straightforward path and resign. Should he refuse to, though, the University must cut ties with its former president to the greatest extent possible.

Look, I know this weaponization of male academic interest is the oldest story in the book, but it’s just so, so pernicious. It’s awful to the women directly involved, but it’s also awful to *all* women in the academy, who have to live in its shadow all the time.

Last night, the rainbow crosswalks were removed from an intersection in the historically LGBTQ neighborhood of Montrose in Houston, Texas.

Protesters were arrested.

It’s the neighborhood in which I grew up and where I live.

This too is a form of violence.

Dear mainstream media,
You’re nibbling around the edges of the Trump disaster without reporting the huge overall story that’s in front of you. Feel free to use this headline and lead paragraph, no charge.
Sincerely, Mark

If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.
