Attending the bull session were ten boys and half as many girls, most handpicked from the Freshman Register. Apparently the photographer thought the group looked too bland, because he scouted the decor of other rooms in the entry until he found a wall-size collage of nudes.

...cover will feature a "typical Harvard-Radcliffe bull session," carefully staged on Monday in the Matthews South dwelling of Steven J. Kelman '70. Kelman, the poet laureate of the freshman class, has published political articles in Harper's The Saturday Evening Post, and the New Leader.

In this fourth reconstruction of the Hellenic past, she grapples with the ordeal of Dion of Syracuse, who tried vainly, 24 centuries ago, to convert a tyranny into Plato's ideal city-state. This theme does not easily catch the modern fancy; after all, the roll of centuries has only emphasized the unattainability of Dion's dream. It appears...
