But administrators also believe that undergraduates can be proud of their affiliation with the college now. As Horner puts it, "Some Radcliffe women say they're from Harvard because they don't feel equal saying 'Radcliffe.' That's like immigrants to the United States changing their names.

"We feel there should be more debate and discussion before a department is created," argues Robin Schmidt, vice president for government and community affairs, who handles the issue in the office. Schmidt's (read: Harvard's) concerns are echoed by national decision-makers. "Frankly, I am appalled by the rush of some...
