I understand what he said (or may have said). But my point (and Ty's) is that that doesn't matter. He is the president of Harvard, and even if he says he's not, or he's not acting in that capacity, people will still recognize that he is, at the end of the speech, the president of Harvard, and holds the views he just expressed on his own behalf. And if those views are cause for concern, they are even more so if held by the president of harvard (if it weren't such a second-rate institution)
