<p>And I disagree with what you say about what constitutes "fact" as opposed to "opinion."</p>
<p>The forces of political correctness pretty much came out of the outrageous attack on Summers with egg on their faces. More women than men applied to Harvard, were admitted, and enrolled. The yield rate on female admits was even a bit higher than the yield on male admits.</p>
<p>So much for the absurd accusations that Summers was "sexist" and the equally absurd predictions (some by regulars on this Board allied with Yale or Princeton), that the alleged "scandal" would hurt Harvard. His popularity is very high among students, and alumni contributions again led the nation. The Corporation is 4-square behind him.</p>
<p>That certain regressive forces on the faculty tried to seize on this artificial "scandal" to undermine Summers had not a little to do with his efforts to reform tenure, and to <em>make teachers teach</em>!!</p>
<p>Far frlom it! Not only were therere more apps than ever in history, and the lowest admit rate in history, but the yield rate even <em>rose</em> from last year!</p>
