Harvard has lobbied hard in favor of the middle income assistance program, says Thomas R. Wolanin of the House Select Committee on Post-Secondary Education. R. Jerrold Gibson '51, director of Harvard's office of Fiscal Services, has made frequent trips to the Capitol. "Gibson has been helping our staff devise a bill that technically does the right thing; he's really one of the national experts on student loans," Wolanin says...
...Gibson elaborates on Harvard's opposition to the tax credits proposal, saying, "Tax credit money goes to the wrong people--38 per cent of the money will go to families with incomes over $30,000." Although tax credit supporters cite the administrative simplicity of the plan--taxpayers can claim the benefit by answering a few questions on their tax forms--Cottington says the Internal Revenue Service would have to develop a complex bureaucracy to monitor the program that will duplicate the functions of existing financial aid bureaucracies...

...distressed that my classmate R. Jerrold Gibson '51, director of the Office of Fiscal Services, should so casually dismiss the proposal of Boston University's President John R. Silber for a tuition advance fund. Harvard's endowment, twice its nearest competitor, may yield immunity from the problems of financing higher education but the rest of the nation is not so blessed. Mr. Gibson's contempt for this plan, however, was not shared by his Harvard colleagues in 1968. As one of Dean Ebert's associate deans at Harvard Medical School in that era, I helped the dean promote the national...
