...Student Council. It has maintained the loose form of non-powerful student organization unique to Harvard and its House system. Should the Student Council disband, the only voices for student opinion and student views at Harvard would be those of the CRIMSON and WHRB.

In one respect, something has been lost: the characters are no longer so fully and revealingly lived with, hence so expressive or large. In another respect, something has been blurred: there is a lessened thematic sense, and even in a tighter framework, where everything should prove integral, some things are merely episodic or picturesque...
