According to one member, "a little association like the BGMA just can't deal with Harvard on Harvard's level. Maybe years ago it could, but not anymore." The BGMA has always chosen its bargainers from its own membership, but Harvard's personnel office, which bargains for "management," now has a staff of professionally trained negotiators. Union members come back from bargaining sessions crestfallen after having faced Harvard's representatives. They even tell of one management aide whose function it is to go plowing through a contract defining the exact meaning of each word, in every case to the benefit...
Bursting with Ballyhoo.

...real world." He has brought an impressive list of guest speakers to the campus, ranging from President Johnson, who spoke there on a war-on-poverty tour in May 1964, to the late Protestant theologian Paul Tillich. The university's select "Ohio Fellows," 30 members of each class chosen for their potential as future public leaders, have been able to quiz such officials as Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. Alden has also defended the right of U.S. Nazi Leader George Lincoln Rockwell to be heard on campus, as well as the right...
