WRC and Shaheen
Actually, as a non-profit the College isn't allowed to endorse political candidates, and an endorsement on the official email Bulletin of a branch of the College would theoretically jeopardize its tax-exempt status. Obviously, that would never happen over something this minor, and Munafo actually worded her message fairly carefully to avoid an explicit endorsement. Still if anyone knows someone with the Sununu campaign at Dartmouth, you might suggest they ask the WRC, in the spirit of the non-profit tax exemption the College makes full use of, to post information on how to support his candidacy as well.

For Review Staff: There's a potential article in the extent to which the resources of the College are used to promote the candidates of particular parties. It's a non-ideological problem (I doubt they're be many departments and offices shilling for the GOP, but there could be some), and it would be nice to know before the next time I'm pumped for contributions by the Alumni Office.
