Intially, for instance, Bose found it hard to gather data about the physical condition of various systems and equipment under the specific responsibility of certain groups. But he claims that as each department saw that the long-run benefits of "putting all of the cards on the table" became apparent, this resistence subsided...
These are the initial barriers that central planning at Harvard must overcome. Naturally, autonomous faculties and departments tend to protect themselves and to seek to mask their shortcomings. Bose says that he faced a certain degree of institutional resistence in his gathering of information, particularly from departments such as Buildings and Grounds that are responsible for keeping the physical plant in working order...
...responsibility of actually pulling all of the information and data into a coherent interim report for submission to the University and the community went to Supratik Bose, manager of long range planning for the Planning Office. Bose was charged with piecing together all of the comments and mounds of information that had been gathered--much of it for the first time. Often he was forced to put University-wide charts or maps together on a building-by-building basis. Bose, who has advocated such a method of long term planning at Harvard since 1965, and his staff were faced with...
From the standpoint of carefully outlining exactly what all of the potential construction, renovation, purchase, demolition and other physical alterations Harvard could possibly encounter for this time period, Bose and those who worked on the plan have done a thorough and superb job. It is hard to imagine any ordinary project suddenly appearing on the horizon that has not been foretold in this report. The report, then, is more one that indicates the alternatives for future planning than one that offers a blueprint for Harvard's future physical projects...
...Died. Satyendranath Bose, 80, Indian physicist who, though he had never met Albert Einstein, collaborated by mail in 1924-25 on the Bose-Einstein Theory, a cornerstone in the development of modern quantum physics; in Calcutta...
