...entering on our findings and recommendations it might be well to stress our belief that the attitudes of black students with respect to the University are by no means wholly dissimilar from those of other students. Black students feel alienated from, even neglected within, Harvard; but so, as we know, do many whites. Black students seek and expect "relevance" from their Harvard education, but obviously they are not alone, at this time, in voicing such an expectation.
