The reform came through the efforts of a man who is himself something of a novelty among Ivy League presidents, a computer expert and science-fiction buff who still speaks English with a thick Hungarian accent. As the chaos of rival songs faded away, John Kemeny just smiled: bringing women to Dartmouth had been one of his chief goals since he took over as president two years ago.
