While Harvard officials gave no reasons for the extension of the Yenching's lease, a petition to President Neil L. Rudenstine circulated by the restaurant may have influenced the University's final decision.
Lung said the petition, which objects to Harvard's "high-handed" behavior and calls for "equal treatment," had already been signed by a Nobel laureate.
In other business, the council tabled two proposals by Triantafillou, Born, Reeves and Councillor Henrietta A. Davis to petition the State Legislature to extend the rent controls on "expiring-use" apartment buildings.
Following the elections, the council passed a resolution of support for a petition being circulated by Students for Core Reform.
The petition would "amend the guidelines that define the Core to let appropriate departmental courses count for core credit."
