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?
