Several conditions make Mather a special case in relation to coed living. About 100 Harvard juniors who want to move from their present Houses into Mather have been invited to apply to Mather to fill presently vacant space. Mather's low-rise section is scheduled to open February 2, when the 134 sophomores presently affiliated with the House will move in. This low-rise section will house 250 students: the sophomores already accepted to Mather, a few transfer students, and the 100 juniors who have requested a transfer. The Mather tower, which will house another 140 students, will not open...
...proposal was to invite applications this winter for those 100 vacancies from both Harvard upperclassmen who wish to change Houses and from Cliffies who want to move. If too many applied, assignments could be made on the basis of carliest applications, of most overcrowding in present accommodations, or on some other basis which admitted both seves. This proposal would thus have the effect of creating coed housing without displacing large numbers of Harvard...
...discussion that came out of the meeting of the Mather students and staff. Several problems were immediately apparent with both of these possibilities. First, Mather House's current purpose is to relieve overcrowding in other Harvard Houses. Although it is questionable that 100 juniors will want to leave their present Houses to move to Mather this winter, by next fall when new sophomores enter the Houses and the Mather tower opens, general overcrowding at Harvard should be eased considerably. Radcliffe, however, would not have relief for their overcrowding, even with the opening of Currier House next fall, since the South...
...ENTHUSIASM for coed living at Mather, however, is still quite alive. While there will be no girls in Mather this spring, next fall will present an almost identical opportunity for coed housing at Mather. The opening of the Tower, like the lowrise section this spring, will provide unassigned living spaces in sizcable numbers. Proposals similar to those already mentioned will be equally valid then...
Though the art forms are present, art, for the most part, is not. The general failure of the literature is akin to the failure of socialist realist literature. Art and ideology are not incompatible when either the art is crafty enough to slip the dogma in unobtrusively, or the ideology is sufficiently original and interesting to justify being dramatized. But in Aphra. the writing doesn't shine, and most of the ideas just aren...
