What a Wolfowitz resignation means for Reed

Via Atrios there's this little tidbit:

Word is that Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz may bow out as soon as February. Replacement requirements: a strong manager, one who can repair relations with the military and could take over for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Several names have bubbled up, including Deputy White House National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley, a former Pentagon assistant, and NASA boss Sean O'Keefe, a former secretary of the Navy.


I find this immensely interesting as a Reedie. Here's why:

Wolfowitz's son (I think it's his son) went to Reed and really enjoyed it. So Wolfowitz has been wanting to speak here, but has been too busy what with the war in Iraq and all. If this is accurate, and Wolfowitz resigns in February, then he could be coming on campus sometime in March or April.

At the risk of understatement, that should be quite interesting.
