I find fault not with the decision—it was a good one—but with the fact that a small clique of administrators made the decision, once again, with little input from anyone else. In doing so, they deprived the Harvard community of an opportunity to improve itself through the discussion of an issue that will follow us long after we leave Cambridge...

...game,” as the title of a book on Ivy League recruiting puts it, more power to them. Harvard has been the second kind of dog in the dog-eat-dog world of hoops recruiting for too long.Amaker, for his part, is diplomatic and stoic to a fault. He has refused to comment on the story. He has let robotic releases from the University spokesman and the admissions office serve as responses to Thamel’s broadside. If he’s clean, if his staff is clean, he should say so. He shouldn?...
