...this larger problem, or any academic standing to address it. One was a celebrity restaurant owner from San Francisco, the second led an organization called Slow Food USA, and the third was a noted playwright and actress from New York. Apparently Harvard had found no reason to seek the opinion of a trained nutritionist, or a demographer, or an agroecologist. Not even an historian...

Leading up to the rally, students submitted over 70 pages of feedback on the budget process to the UC website. This input will guide the UC leadership over the summer, and has allowed the UC to gain a better grasp on student opinion. However, students must not lose interest in the budget process—for as Harvard reshapes and restructures, student opinion must be heard. We must build on the energy from the rally, and while it is the UC?...
