Although the letter from David Brodsky is a nice read, and sounds factual,
etc., the Ms. Kates that is referred to is certainly not the President of
Rutgers State University. According to the first few hits of my Google
search, she is (or was) a law student and pro-Palestinian activist.
I for one wish that this list be kept to solely Bukowina-related postings.
Thank you.
