Revlon wants to acquire 30-year-old U.S. Vitamin & Pharmaceutical (vitamins, diabetic products, vascular drugs) for some of the same reasons that have drawn drug companies to cosmetics. Research in the two fields tends to overlap, often producing a cosmetic that a drug firm finds hard to market or a drug that a cosmetics manufacturer is at a loss to understand. Revlon hopes that combined research will turn up products that can be readily retailed in drugstores, which are thoroughly covered by Revlon's crack 168-man sales force...
Phelps said he feels that opening facilities to extension students will not change the undergraduate character of the House. "I don't think the hours that undergraduates and extension students would spend in the House will overlap significantly," he explained...

Similarly, this specialization has resulted in important aspects of the Soviet Union being completely overlooked, such as the multinational, non-Slav facet of the USSR, traditional Russian norms, etc. Lastly, the material covered in the various courses often tends to overlap. The general value and specific Harvard need for an interdisciplinary, integrated approach to Soviet civilization could be best served by a new upper-level Soc. Sci. The new course, however, should be something more than the mere splicing together of lectures cut out of existing Soviet courses...
