Harvard's new President is living in the past
No. I am not talking about the fact that she is a professor in history (or is it herstory in this case?)
I am talking about her views on gender.
Asked whether her appointment signified the end of gender inequality at Harvard, Prof Faust said: "Of course not. There is a lot of work still to be done, especially in the sciences."
So only the areas still dominated by male students, however slightly, are interesting from a gender perspective?
What about other areas more heavily dominated by women than sciences are by men?
Her background as a women's studies professor does not deny itself.
