...John T. Dunlop, who served as dean of the Faculty from 1969 to 1973 cannot recall any cases coming before him. And Rosovsky says he remembers only a couple of cases. In the wake of the increased interest in the whole issue, the Faculty's Committee on Research Policy (CRP) has been working on revisions to the 1966 statement. The proposed set of rules, postponed for approval after three Faculty Council debates, would specify certain circumstances under which a faculty member must report his activities to the dean. The "Statement of Policy on Conflicts of Interest for the Faculty...
There have always been critics who said that the school was growing too much and too fast. This year, some think their suspicions have been confirmed. Long before President Bok last year ordered the Masters of Public Policy (MPP) program to absorb the GSD City and Regional Planning (CRP) program, Graham T Allison Jr. '62, dean of the K-School, argued that an expanded home was necessary.

Laurence E. Lynn, professor of Public Policy and chairman of the faculty committee hammering out details of the merger, refuses to even speculate about what will happen should the building not be finished by 1983; "I wish the building existed now. For every month delay, the strain gets worse," he says...
Concerns over the building have only exacerbated problems with combining the two programs.

But the two programs differ in the emphasis they place on quantitative as opposed to qualitative analysis, and disagreements have spilled over into their attempts to develop a joint basic curriculum and admissions policy...
...discussion of a controversial issue. Council members once again found pervasive wording problems in a proposal that would have required Faculty members with potentially serious conflicts of interest between academic and outside work to report them to the University. The proposal--drawn up by the Committee on Research Policy (CRP)--first came before the council last winter and was debated three times before Dean Rosovsky recommended tabling the issue. The CRP proposal, part of the Faculty's attempt to develop guidelines governing professors' outside work, would amend a 15-year-old University policy on conflicts of interest by distinguishing between...
