...likes to tell a story that says a great deal about his main concern as Nixon's chief trustbuster. There was an executive whose firm had been taken over by a con glomerate. Wrote the executive to a friend: "You ask me what it's like to work for a conglomerate? Well, it's just like being a mushroom. First, they keep you in the dark for months.

...that's the way everything else is at Harvard. The decision is up to the individual. If a student wants to pad his butt, let him. P.T. coupons are an unjustified attempt to direct a student's activities. Aside from the matter of justification, these coupons just do not work and the athletic department is foolish to persist with this system. If those in charge consider the situation for a moment, they will decide that this year's freshmen will be the last...
