Yale Taliban

The Yale Taliban has faded from attention due to the lack of interest from MSM and the deafening silence from Yale itself. The situation has not gone away however with the Taliban Hashemi's request for admission to the degree program.

Now Yale faces the question of whether to admit Mr. Hashemi on a more formal basis to a program that leads to an undergraduate degree. Yale's president, Richard C. Levin, declined a request for an interview and has generally not spoken publicly about Mr. Hashemi. He did tell The Yale Daily News, the student newspaper, that the admissions office would decide whether to allow Mr. Hashemi to pursue a Yale degree.
