While McCue moved swiftly to excise CRP, he is encouraging a slow and cautious development of the new program. He says, "I've been trying to get the faculty not to arrive at decisions too quickly. Right now, I'm trying to see how many interesting ideas and alternatives we can bring out." The Design School's new dean has already shown himself to be very willing to make the bold decisions. And what about the future? McCue only says, "I have a few embryonic ideas. Call me back this summer...
More than 400 students are enrolled in programs which handled fewer than 150 in 1976; a faculty of 20 has grown to 50. On July 1 the City and Regional Planning Program (CRP), now at the Graduate School of Design (GSD), officially brings its troupe of 240 policy makers-to-be and 17 professors to the corner of Boylston and Memorial Drive. The K-School's network of specialized research centers relentlessly churn out remedies for the nation's ills, and more research groups are planned for the future.

"For ten years we have been dealing specifically with public policy. It's a perfect time to step back and see just what we have accomplished and how we might go about it better," he explains. Faculty committees have for several months been examining this problem and will submit their findings to Allison...
