Harvard's Interaction with the Military
Harvard University & the US Military – an introspection INTRODUCTION Since the middle of the 20th century, Harvard has unjustifiably been labeled as a bastion of left wing, anti- military elitists in the forefront of the myopic “Blame America first” radicals. However, the predominate opinion of faculties & undergraduates at most universities have tended to skew to the left since the Baby Boomers revolted in the late 1960’s against the values and traditions of their “greatest generation” parents who won World War II. For several recent decades, the decline in patriotism and service to country among many young Americans has been compounded by narcissistic lack of responsibility, the pleasure principle driving promiscuous sex and the growing use of illegal drugs, revisionist history, the breakdown of the traditional family and biased multi-media communications. In reality, Harvard alumni reflect a bell curve of opinions and many have demonstrated courage, integrity and commitment by serving in the US military from the American War for Independence to the current World War against Islamic Fundamentalist terrorism. The prime purpose of this introspection is to proudly promulgate the untold story of the long Crimson line of Harvard warriors as a role model for current and future undergraduates at Harvard and elsewhere. A secondary objective of this paper is to review the positive Harvard policies of the past that have helped to nurture and develop many Harvard heroic veterans and identify what needs to be done for Harvard to again have a preeminent patriotic role in educating and developing future military leaders. Harvard’s interaction with the military Harvard College is the oldest university in the United States which was established by the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1636. -

Master Draft “Coolness Under Fire”
“No Job For a Woman:” The Women Who Fought To Report World War II TABLE OF CONTENTS A. SUMMARY This is a request for $625,000 for the Production phase of’ ‘No Job For a Woman’: The Women Who Fought to Report World War II, a one-hour documentary for public television focusing on the story of the women war reporters of World War II, the obstacles they encountered, and their role in contributing to a new way of war reporting. The project received an NEH Consultation Grant in 2002, an NEH Planning Grant in 2004, and an NEH Scripting Grant in 2006. The project has also been selected to be part of the Endowment’s “We the People” initiative because it explores “significant events and themes in our nation’s history and culture” and advances “knowledge of the principles that define America.” During the Production phase, we will expand our fundraising campaign to finance the production, projected to cost approximately $735,000. The non-profit sponsor for this film is Women Make Movies. B. SUBJECT AND HUMANITIES THEMES “Bullets don’t discriminate. The dangers are basically the same whether you are male or female,” says NPR’s Iraq war correspondent, Anne Garrels. Today, a woman -- CNN’s Christiane Amanpour -- is possibly the most famous war reporter worldwide. While women reporting war may seem commonplace now, their arrival in the profession is the result of nearly 150 years of struggle and hard work. Many of these battles were fought in the newsrooms and trenches of World War II. During the course of World War II nearly 140 women reporters were accredited to cover events overseas out of a total of approximately 1700 accredited reporters overall. -
Thick Enough to Stop a Bullet: Civil Protection Orders, Social Media, and Free Speech
THICK ENOUGH TO STOP A BULLET: CIVIL PROTECTION ORDERS, SOCIAL MEDIA, AND FREE SPEECH Benjamin Paul Bennett* ABSTRACT Domestic violence occurs in private and public spaces, including the virtual spaces social media platforms create. This Note examines the role domestic violence Civil Protection Orders can play in regulating social media behavior. Contrary to scholars who have argued that injunctions and criminal statutes should rarely, if ever, prohibit “speech about” an individual, this Note argues that Civil Protection Orders prohibiting an abuser from mentioning his victim over social media are appropriate in some circumstances. In examining what circumstances justify such orders, and how those orders should be issued and enforced, this Note considers constraints set by First Amendment free speech principles and a desire to combat mass incarceration. * As a Managing Editor of this publication, I am unusually aware of the number of people who deserve credit for the quality of this work. Thank you all, particularly Tess Dernbach and Rachel Ramirez-Guest. Thank you to my faculty adviser, Jeremy Kessler, for your collaboration and guidance, and for the greatest gift a note mentor can give a student: the ongoing, sincere impression that what I had to say mattered. Thank you also to Professors Harold Edgar, Katherine Franke, and Dan Richman for brief but fruitful conversations at various stages of this paper's development. This article is inspired by, and dedicated to, the domestic violence advocates I worked with at Bread for the City, namely, Tracy Davis, Julia Saladino, and Emily Petrino. Hope this helps. 2019] Thick Enough to Stop a Bullet 229 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction .......................................................................
