...addition to Cech and Faust, two academics outside the Ivy League, Stanford’s Etchemendy and Cambridge’s Richard, seemed to be plausible contenders. And as Harvard looked to strengthen its science programs and make the Allston campus a center of scientific innovation, the committee eyed Harold E. Varmus, a former National Institutes of Health Director and 2000 Harvard presidential candidate, late in the search process, according to an individual familiar with Varmus’ activities.

...additional $1.6 million in unpaid pledges. By June 11, 1959—Commencement Day for the Class of 1959—the program had raised only $61 million, or 74 percent, of its goal of $82.5 million, according to the Boston Sunday Herald.
