Explaining that a 1963 ruling limits Council membership to Radcliffe Trustees, Mary I. Bunting, president of Radcliffe, told the conference that official student membership on the Council was impossible.

He was perhaps the most visible guest at Truman Capote's lavish bal masque in Manhattan's Plaza Hotel in 1966, dancing for a while with a candelabrum, then tossing it around, quarterback style, with George Plimpton.

Logically, of course, the function of intermediary between Faculty and student should belong to resident tutors or House Committees; but the tutors are often too hung up in their own little world of grad school professionalism, while House Committees often limit their duties to maintaining the evening grill. The Gill Committee recently concluded that a senior should not be forced to remain on-campus if he is willing to pay his share of administrative expenses. Ideally, seniors...
