THEODORE WHITE, author: Senator Pat Moynihan in the sense that he led an internal revolt against the dominant, the liberal tradition of the U.S. And Ralph Nader is a leader. He called the corporations to account. Ben Bradlee has been the supreme iconoclast of American journalists. He'd expose his own mother.

"We've done our homework, we've gathered together all the information to make the proposals and we'll see more action next year," Moynihan says about the GSC this year. But the generalization could be applied across the GSAS. Although Rosovsky admits that "We're moving slowly, as usual," the analysis, preparation and discussion of administrators and professors are a vigorous reaction to changes in the "real world" which have altered the face of Harvard...
