...rationale for the view that the area of decision-making in the University which students have the most right to control is the area involving their own living conditions. We also tend to the view that in this area as much discretion as possible should be left to the membership of the individual Houses, though it should be kept in mind that the House communities include senior as well as junior common rooms, and that both have responsibilities, as well as rights, that may need to be reconciled...

We urge that the Committee on Admissions and Scholarships meet periodically with student representatives of the Committee...

A number of our student consultants, after examining the types of cases coming before the Administrative Board, frequently involving intimate personal problems, expressed some disinclination to participate in inquiries into and judgments on them. We also face issues of overlapping jurisdiction. As the working paper of the Committee of Fifteen referred to in our postscript on disciplinary procedures makes clear, reforms in the procedures and composition of the Administrative Board and the Radcliffe Judicial Council are currently...
