Fiske: During the 1960s Harvard... made commitments to minority education. In the last few years, however, these gains seem to be eroding. At Harvard, for instance, in virtually every department, the number of blacks peaked somewhere from '72 to '74 and is now declining. Wouldn't this suggest that that commitment itself has weakened...

...this point, he made a fatal mistake, committing a crime which I for one think deserves, at the very least, instant castration. And what was this horrible, perverted act? Why, he sat there and held, (yes, he actually held) the ball, even seeming to suggest that he might wish to keep it for a minute or two. Ghastly, isn't it? How can this kind of thing...
