Tutors and teaching fellows often are in close touch with undergraduates and contribute to a departmental awareness of student grievances and needs. From time to time, undergraduate groups have not hesitated to voice their criticism of courses, teaching, and departmental requirements. In recent years, as we noted earlier, the departmental audits conducted by the Harvard-Radcliffe Policy Committee have produced many useful proposals which were subsequently adopted by the departments.
