...talk to us, who are sparkling and different and bright. (The B's go to Radcliffe girls who memorize the text and quote it verbatim, in perfectly hooped letters with circles over the i's.) Not, I remind you, necessarily to people who have locked themselves in Lamont for a week and seminared and outlined and underlined and typed their notes and argued out all of Leibniz's fallacies with their mothers.

The weather keeps us inside huddled with computers and books, focused on homework...

Take a look at the pictures on the fifth floor of Lamont. They show Lamont first opening to accommodate Harvard's homogeneous white male coat-and-tie student body. Then, by Dauber's logic, we should have expected Harvard to indeed "bow out gracefully" around the 1960s, as diversity began to prove itself increasingly important in education...
