Is Harvard getting stupid?
Not only do they invite Phyllis Schlafly, they fuck up the Harvard Crimson article about a walkout.

“What pushed me over the edge was her stance on domestic violence,” Pyle added, referring to Schlafly’s comments during a speech at Bates College in March, in which she questioned the legitimacy of martial abuse.

According to Robert A. Casapulla, a sophomore and member of the College Republicans at the University of Connecticut who attended the lecture, Schlafly often provokes heated reactions.

Casapulla said that the audience of 70 was “respectful,” noting that “we’re used to a more hysterical response.” Attendees included University President Drew G. Faust and Schlafly’s grandson, Andrew Schlafly ’10.
