These arguments are bound to sound quite familiar to anyone acquainted with recent developments in the relationship between Harvard and its neighbors. Cambridge residents express almost identical concerns to Harvard’s plans to build an art museum on Memorial Drive or a new home for the Department of Government on Cambridge Street.

Such an act required courage and, above all, the knowledge that one's political position should not be determined by party allegiance. The Republican Party led by George W.
