...modern Japan. Without an existing program in Asian American studies, student advocates are trapped in a “vicious cycle,” said professor Wilt L. Idema, head tutor of the East Asian languages and literatures department. “If the courses are not there, students cannot take them,” Idema said. “Students cannot show how much interest there is. If there is no proof of student interest, there is no reason for the administration to provide the classes.” A FAILED ATTEMPT Still, after decades of waiting, the tide...

...these two fields into rushed decisions and saw them scraping to correct their plans of study at the last minute. In light of Harvard’s recent efforts to promote good advising on campus, decisions of timing such as this one are at once unacceptable and embarrassing.
