Earlier this year, the Radcliffe Administration planned to suggest that students might pay Buildings and Grounds to install locks if they wished. However, they decided that this was discriminatory. The college will pay the cost of lock installation, Mrs. Bunting announced Thursday...
...casual glance at investment statistics might suggest that 1968 was a vintage year for mutual funds. Most of them outperformed the market and, overall, the assets of 300 U.S. funds grew a healthy 22%, from $45 billion to $55 billion. Of 307 funds surveyed by Manhattan's Arthur Lipper Corp., 285 did better than the Dow-Jones average of 30 blue-chip industrial stocks, whose average 4.3% growth barely kept abreast of inflation. Altogether, 238 funds topped the 9.4% gain of the New York Stock Exchange's index of all its 1,249 common stocks...
HISTORY is happening to us now, and so we assume that someone is making it happen.

For without the achievement of that kind of knowledge, the decision about what is to be done will be made in blindness and terror, with...
...situation at Harvard, can be seen implicitly in the decision of the Faculty meeting of January 14, and more explicitly in Ford's article in Harvard Today. In the first part of this letter (CRIMSON, Jan. 9) I examined that article at length, and now I only want to suggest the connection between the views I attributed to Ford (again, I hope I was wrong) and the more general view of the Left that I have been sketching, and then point out some consequences of these positions which we are going to have to face...
Aside from boredom, however, I have growing sense of the political nature (as opposed to moral or educational) of the Administration and many of the Faculty. I do not mean to suggest that many Faculty members are out to get us. Some perhaps are, and many administrators may feel that their jobs would be a lot easier without us. For one thing, they seem to feel that if we weren't around, it would be a lot easier to deal with dissidents in student government, black students, Radcliffe girls, graduate students, junior faculty, and even some senior faculty...
