There is a need for more black students serving as tutors in the Bureau of Study Counsel, and for some means--a published directory--for indicating, for the benefit of undergraduates, the special interests and talents of black graduate students. What is needed generally is more blacks serving throughout the University in positions of responsibility and authority, as members of the Administration as well as of the teaching Faculty. We specifically urge the Dean to make, in the immediate future, an appropriate appointment to a high-level administrative position...
Daedalus shares the blue-white frame on Linden Street with the Bureau of Study Counsel, but it has no official ties with the University. It began as the Journal of the Academy of Arts and Sciences, and arrived at Harvard through the services of John Adams and the default of history. Adams founded the Academy in 1779, in imitation of the Royal Society in Britain. Later presidents of the Academy, Louis Agassiz in particular, continued the Harvard influence and arranged for Academy headquarters in Brookline. The most recent two presidents, Paul Freund and Talcott Parsons, have also been from Harvard...
...York City, of which it is supposed to be a vital part. Even worse, except for some projected excellent landscaping, there is little effort to create neighborhoods at Co-Op City, or a feeling of community.

Consumer Criterion. "We have yet to encounter any legitimate THC in the street trade," says Richard Callahan, New England regional director for the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs. Narcotics agents throughout the U.S. agree that genuine THC is virtually unobtainable on the street. The reason, say Callahan and other experts, is that the process of synthesizing THC is so complex and costly ($5 to $10 per effective dose) that its manufacture makes no commercial sense, even to the Mafia. According to Stanford University's Psychopharmacologist Leo Hollister, genuine THC in doses as low as 70 milligrams may produce...
