...Dunster House Committee was among the first to protest vehemently against the considered changes in rules. Along with Thomas Seymour '64, president of the Harvard Council of Undergraduate Affairs (HCUA), the House Committee proposed a study of sexual practices at Harvard and organized a group to conduct the study and consider working to abolish parietals altogether. John Purvis '64 of the Dunster House Committee said then that, "it would be unfortunate if the privilege of entertaining a date in a natural setting were taken away because of vague suspicions...
...Lamont Library. Faye Levine '65, features editor of The Crimson, ran for Harvard class marshall; she got enough votes to make the run-off, but the Harvard Council for Undergraduate Affairs refused to count them.

From the beginning, he has been one of its strongest supporters. When the old HCUA decided to abolish itself, it gave the college a referendum offering a choice between the HCUA and the new HPC-HUC. Conspicuously absent was the choice of nothing at all; the HCUA feared, quite rightly, that if given that choice the college would take nothing. As it was, less than half...
