...draft of an e-mail authored by several of the students in attendance and sent by Hysen, who is also an active Crimson IT editor, to the We—Are—Harvard Google group reads in part, "The recent cuts announced by Dean Smith reflect the top-down process by which these decisions were made. Broad community input would have alerted the administration to the serious issues that have been raised with many of these cuts.
