Second, nowhere in my Bulletin articles do I attack what Prof. Bell calls the "mental stability," "intellectual ability" and "basic integrity" of Negro students at Harvard. What I do say in those articles, and would reiterate, is that too many black students enter Harvard with academic deficiencies (perhaps 40%) and that this should be avoided by raising the median SAT verbal and math scores of black students nearer to the median for Harvard College. I also argue that a quota for blacks is defensible and the proportion of blacks in Harvard College be maintained...

Whoever thought it up fails to realize that so high an honor could have its seamy side, too. Mr. Nixon would find himself in a cheerless company along with men of thought, science, literature, above all, integrity, where plastic "sincerities" and windy rhetoric are not properly appreciated...
