The article had no discussion of the military recruiter ban she imposed at Harvard law. A bit of a puff piece IMHO.

Nothing pragmatic about trying to get the DoD to agree not to discriminate based on sexual orientation in violation of federal law (DADT). Nothing very scholarly either. Political? Very much so.

Dude didn’t didn’t “ban” them.

She restricted them.

Now this restricting may or may not have been a partisan political act.

But saying that she “banned them” or kicked them all off campus is demonstrably false.
