Mention should also be made of the Pompadour method, named after the late Izzy Pompadour, Taylor Cheesewitt Professor of Applied History, whose reading lists remain on file at the Faculty Club. The typical Pompadour list was split into five areas (with such titles as "Chaos and Collapse" and "A Wing and a Prayer"), each in turn split among books "Recommended," "Critical," "Assumed," "Incidental," and "Basic."

It has no control over social policy-setting matters; it merely oversees specific problems that arise. And even for these small problems, the Committee usually bows to the will...
