While many of the questions outlined below are currently under the iurisdiction of standing committees of the Faculty, the broad concern and variety of views on these issues requires that the committees which examine them be composed of a wider membership than the standing committees. The Faculty's two recent experiments in new types of committees-The Student-Faculty Advisory Council and the Committee of Fifteen-may not seem encouraging to some, but neither of these committees is comparable to those here proposed. SEAC has always suffered from the lack of a defined mandate: its mission has been to consider...
...this month, Royal Laotian troops mounted a two-pronged attack against the Plain of Jars in the northeast, and against Communist units guarding the Ho Chi Minh Trail in central Laos. Last week, for the first time in five years, government forces were in control of part of the broad Plain of Jars, so called because of the many funereal jars on the area's tombs.

Both the statutes and the traditions of the University permit each of the faculties broad leeway in determining how it should function, consistently with Harvard's fundamental commitment to academic excellence...
...Though the disciplinary proceedings growing out of last April's occupation have now been all but wrapped up and packed away, promises of University reform remain nothing more than promises, and vague ones at that. The Friendly Committee report, as yet unreleased, presents only a broad analysis of the Spring crisis. The Overseers have, however, recognized that the overriding issue of University governance must be decided by a representative spectrum of the University. Reliable sources indicate that the report will recommend an unprecedented committee composed of students, faculty. Overseers, and Corporation members to revamp the entire decision-making process...
