...going to take it anymore," a megaphone outside Matthews screamed across the Yard two years ago, protesting the assignment of 150 unwilling freshmen to South House. And, not surprisingly the administration reacted to the dissatisfaction in a material way, deciding to allot a few more dollars of the budget to enchance the appeal of the six dorms that surround the Radcliffe Quadrangle. $435,000 of that money went to finance a new dining hall in Cabot Hall, begun in August 1977 and originally scheduled for completion last January...
Critics of the tax credit say that too much of its benefits would go to those who do not need tuition assistance. A Congressional Budget Office study released last January shows that while almost half of the money for the tax credit would go to families in the $10,00 to $25,00 range, as much as 37 per cent would go to those earning over that amount and only 13 per cent to families earning less. The Opportunity Act provides bigger grants to a more narrowly-defined group. Sixty-four per cent of the money added to the BEOG...
...funds in the work-study program, funds that the women could not share. The problem started when Radcliffe spent over half of its original work-study grant in the summer of 1977, leaving very little money for term-time employment.

The study, concerned mainly with determining how much of the budget for Gen Ed might be transferred to the Core directly, shows that or about 75 Gen Ed courses offered this year, about 30--mostly introductory courses in the Natural Sciences--seem to fit the Core criteria. Wilcox says he will take up a similar study of departmental courses...
