...those worrying about Harvard's involvement in the arts, ought to realize that such studies are not a substitute for a carefully though-out program, of whatever scale, for artistic endeavor. Creative courses have been in an ambiguous position at Harvard since the dawn of the Visual Studies program in 1963. At present, no one is quite certain of their place; the adoption of Vis Stud, and of such courses as Hum 4 and Hum 105 has given a certain validity to the idea that Harvard has a program in the creative arts.

...scope of the system, however, is of crucial importance. Deployment of Nike-X in a large scale $30 billion system would undoubtedly cause the Russians to develop new offensive and defensive systems to match ours--perhaps even perfecting an ICBM capable of circumventing anti-missile missiles. These "advances" would conceivably make the Nike-X system obsolete before it is even finished...
