From a wrap-up in NYT:

Dr. Resnik was one of many commencement speakers who spoke out against what they consider a growing belligerence in American foreign policy. Others condemned war, racism and poverty.

Ho-hum.

Judith Resnik, speaking at Bryn Mawr College, made the weirdest claim:

I do not think that either the world or my own country has been torture-free since the Renaissance.

There wasn’t torture during the Renaissance?
