...everything together as "the Army." Let us nor further insult the intelligence and sensitivity of those interested by pretending that the Faculty motion, and the approval by Harvard Corporation, rest on academic principles. To call a spade a spde, the war in Vietnam precipitated the action at Harvard, not concern for academic quality. There is absolutely no justification for imputing what has happened to a higher (or purer) motive. It is simply political, not academic. Vive le viscera. The cavalier treatment given to ROTC by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences must be seen for what it was: a supercilious...
...From your article about Henry Kissinger [Feb. 14], I quote: "What remains constant is his concern with the fundamental uses of strength. The U.S. has not quite grasped an axiom that European statesmen had long ago mastered: peace is not a universal realization of one nation's desires, but a general acceptance of a concept of an 'international order...
...Gaulle nor Ulbricht could dim the clear purpose of the President's journey to Europe.

Said Nixon: "We have learned that intelligence is not fixed at birth, but is largely formed by the environmental...
...M.I.T. protesters are calling on their own colleagues and on scientists and engineers all over the U.S. to forgo their normal research activities on March 4 and to spend the day dis cussing their concern about Government "overemphasis" on scientific weapons research. "Misuse of scientific and technical knowledge presents a major threat to the existence of mankind," 48 professors state in a document distributed at M.I.T. and on dozens of other campuses. "Through its actions in Viet Nam, our Government has shaken our confidence in its ability to make wise and humane decisions...
