Given the National Center For Transgender Equality (NCTE), the Transgender American Veterans Association (TAVA - position statement here), and the school's own Harvard Trans Task Force being against ROTC programs returning to the university campus -- where colleges and universities, such as Harvard, have antidiscrimination policies that include gender identity -- to many trans people that decision would be definitely appear wrongheaded. No doubt a vote favoring the return of an ROTC program at Harvard would be on the wrong side of history -- as much as the 1993 congressional Don't Ask, Don't Tell vote was on the wrong side of history.

Why was the 1993 vote for dont ask dont tell, a bad thing? DADT was a huge step forward. Before that, they had criminal investigations if they suspected you were gay or there was a rumor.
