What If She Were Harvard's Prez?

Howard Kurtz quotes Gail Collins of the NYT editorial pages saying something that would raise quite a stink at Harvard:
Gail Collins, the first woman to run the New York Times editorial page, says, "The pool of available people doing opinion writing is still tilted toward men. There are probably fewer women, in the great cosmic scheme of things, who feel comfortable writing very straight opinion stuff, and they're less comfortable hearing something on the news and batting something out."
Is she really saying that men might be more genetically disposed to op/ed writing? Isn't that "the great cosmic ccheme of things?" What an outrage! How dare she!!

Want to venture a guess as to how many stones the PC/Lib crowd will throw at this?
