With that sentence, Dean Rosovsky reflects the frustration of ten years of wrangling, rhetoric, and demonstrations over the substance and direction of Afro-American Studies at Harvard. The department had its tenth anniversay last April, and no one--students, faculty or administrators--can look back over these years complacently...
...Brien says the agency has made "no attempt to arrive at a balanced judgement; what they look for--when they come in every three or five years--is insufficient documentation." Scott puts it more simply when he says, "Harvard manages its funds in a way that makes sense to Harvard. HEW has criticized us for not documenting our expenditures very well--but they did not find the right documents."

Meanwhile, Brown, Dartmouth and Yale, on the basis of strength in other positions, look to be the favorites. But whether they win, place or show will depend to a great extent on their ability to solve the quarterback question...

The effect is a cheap look for the film. A national convention scene looks like a Mets game, with an embarrassing sea of empty seats in the background. There is little location shooting, especially in Washington where the opportunities are abundant, which saps whatever realism Schatzberg managed to achieve with his spare direction...
