Franklin L. Ford, acting dean of the Faculty, said Tuesday, however, that the strike was causing "no serious disruption," and other administrators seemed to concur. Earlier that day, five Union members had attempted to confront President Bok, Ford, and Edward T. Wilcox, acting dean of the GSAS, but Wilcox alone was available and willing to see the delegates...
...CONCUR with the committee that it is essential that Harvard be realistic in assessing individual students' chances of admission to med school given the national paucity of med school places, and that it provide adequate information to students about alternative non-medical health care careers.

We ask of ourselves, and of our friends, a beginning; a first commitment to the ideals of socialism. That is what George Orwell made...
