BOSTON – A Harvard University graduate who is the president of a popular local brewery apologized Thursday for remarks he said "came out all wrong" regarding the Ivy League school's edict that centuries-old exclusively male Final Clubs admit women.
It began when Charles M. Storey, Harpoon Brewery boss and graduate board president of the 225-year-old Porcellian Club, wrote an emailed statement to The Crimson campus newspaper Tuesday to defend the club's policies and say that he hopes "the administration will not set the precedent of creating a 'blacklist' of organizations that students cannot join." He suggested doing so smacked of "McCarthyism" and would be a blow to campus traditions of free association.
MOSCOW (AP) — Russia's defense ministry has rejected complaints by U.S. officials who said Russian attack planes buzzed dangerously close to a U.S. Navy destroyer in the Baltic Sea this week.
The U.S. European command says the Russian planes buzzed the ship multiple times Monday and Tuesday in what the U.S. officials described as an unsafe and unprofessional manner.
