Harvard University President Drew Faust has signed an agreement officially welcoming the return of the Reserve Officer Training Corps after a four-decade ban.

Faust signed the deal Friday with Navy Secretary Ray Mabus that will recognize Naval ROTC on campus.

#9  #7 Besoeker Prediction:

I wouldn't take that bet; sucker's bet. First enrolled will probably be an African-American lesbian or additional any other hyphenated American they can add to this mix. Diversity and multi-cultural goals must be met over educational goals.

#8  A real Faustian bargain?

#7  Prediction:

(1.) The first ROTC student enrolled and interviewed by the MSM will be a lesbian.
(2.) The photo op will go to the Hildebeast.

Bets anyone?

#6  Harvard and Obama have several image issues right now. This move will give lots of photo ops in the runup to the elections in 2012.

#5  Actually, ROTC was available, but next door at MIT. The Navy ROTC there supports students at MIT, Harvard, and Tufts. They commute to MIT for the program.

#4  does the ROTC really want to be associated with Khaddafy-dollars-loving Harvard?

#3  Why?

We've done quite well without 'em or their brethren.

Seems the uniform troglodytes have built a working [of sorts] democracy in Iraq, something all those Ivy Leaguers, particularly at State, never were able to achieve. Who needs them?

#2  I'd like to be a fly on the wall on that selection board. An ROTC scholarship to Harvard based on gayness.

#1  ...Way too easy, way too fast. Wondering when the protests will start and Harvard will be 'forced' to send them away again.
