Fasi and Munatones joined junior Californians Phil Atkinson and Dave Guerra, both All-New England selections, at a Long Beach State training camp for the last weeks of the summer. Senior co-captains, Houston Hall, Harvard's leading goal scorer, and Rich "The Wall" Reid, 2nd Team All-New England goalie, round out the starting sextet...
...able to slop around there in jeans, with an old felt hat pulled down to her ears, and drop her pom-pom girl impersonation for good. She established herself quickly as an actress at Vassar. She never seemed to care especially about being a star, recalls Clinton Atkinson, who directed her in the demanding lead role of Strindberg's Miss Julie. But it was clear that she would go beyond college theater. "Onstage," says Atkinson, "something happened within her that glowed. Men were always falling in love with her.

...license them to developers. Toward this end, Harvard established a Committee on Patents and Copyrights (CPC), which began work in 1977 under the chairmanship of Henry C.

"The whole slant of the patent committee and particularly Meadow was been that we are doing this because we have an obligation to do so," Atkinson says...

...anything, what one source calls "the Ptashne flasco" has alerted the Faculty and the public to the supposed dangers of technology transfer. Atkinson says that while his committee's work was basically unaffected by the administration's jump into the field (see sidebar), negative feelings among senior Faculty members may have hindered efforts to encourage the surfacing of patentable ideas. While almost all sources say they envision the evolutionary development of technology transfer at Harvard, some worry that the Ptashne case may have weighted down the progress of such a program rather than accelerated it. The key factor, most...
