Shulamit Reinharz was way out of line in going around in her semi-official capacity and asking students to remove buttons. It is a shame to see administrators continuing their shameful disdain for student speech.

Why didn't the "first lady" simply have her own pin campaign:

"My husband ruined this school and tried to sell this art to bail him out -- oh, and don't forget to give to the annual fund"

Whatever her feeling are about the bottons, she handled the situation unprofessionally. I cannot take credit but a professor put it well today when she said "it is a matter of free speech and if take away that right, what type of school have we become."

It's extraordinarily disturbing to me that Shula Reinharz, as a sociologist and member of the Women's and Gender Studies faculty, seems to have displayed no understanding whatsoever of the issues of rank, power dynamics, or privilege in her interactions with the students at this event. How deeply dissapointing. Reinharz owes these students--and indeed the entire Brandeis community--an immediate and heartfelt apology.
