...Weil's reporting that first brought Pusey's attention to the Harvard Psilocybin Project. If that's true, then it looks like it was the work of a Crimson reporter (who oddly embraced drugs and, as we mentioned, later joined the ranks of the counterculture) was the reason all that epic, tie-dyed craziness of the 1960s didn't take place right here in Harvard Yard...
