...these shots necessary? No, says a group of experts headed by Harvard's Dr. Thomas C. Peebles, who shared a Nobel prize for his part in the research that made polio vaccines possible. The experts do not intend to minimize the importance of vaccination against tetanus, the infection that usually results from deep and dirty wounds in which the tetanus bacteria can thrive without air.

And Morison, in his Development of Harvard University, 1869-1929, agrees that this principle "may now be considered a settled point in American constitutional...

This forces the Radcliffe Institute and women in general to operate with a level of self-criticism not ordinarily required of men.
