...totally successful in revitalizing our public housing program, only part of the job will be done. The two universities which have done so much to make Cambridge what it is--both good and bad--have a special responsibility. It is futile to argue much longer about how much or which parts of the pressures on the housing market are generated by students, faculty, staff and spin-off activities traceable to Harvard and MIT. The point is not whether the response of the universities will be proportional to the degree to which they are responsible for the problem. The question...

It's no longer a rest camp, if it ever was," he says. Queried about the percentage of Summer School students who come for relaxation and little else, Wilkinson replies, "There are some, but there are some in Harvard College too."
