I just enjoyed listening to this whilst gardening. I always learn heaps from Dr Kate Clarke and Prof Christopher Jackson - well more Kate really- including she learnt at least 2 new Spanish words at GI ESMO in Barcelona (one I didn't know) and she'd prefer a robot to a radiation source....2

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
