Kissinger's attitude was "shocking," Williams said, and added that he feels the State Department views black leaders in Africa as somehow inferior to the white governments...
...almost none of it is honest recognition of minority students as people, as individuals who carry and cope with the double responsibility to self and to race and/or culture. Even the term, "minority student," tends to be lumped with such phrases as "disadvantaged," "culturally deprived," "low testers," "intellectually inferior, "inherited insufficiencies."

Most undergraduate musicians, however, doubt that an all Harvard orchestra would be inferior. There are countless capable players at Harvard with no orchestral affiliation; at least three musicians in recent years have been admitted to Music 180, a demanding performance seminar, while seeing what might well have been their places in HRO taken by outsiders. Even the student president of the orchestra acknowledges that admitting only Harvard musicians would not significantly alter the level of performance...
