Recent changes in the leadership of the House Armed Services Committee apparently will have no immediate effect on the committee's informal prohibition on sending military personnel to Harvard and other schools that unilaterally terminated their ROTC programs. The policy was adopted three years ago and strengthened last year at the insistence of former committee chairman F. Edward Hebert (D-La), who lost the powerful chairmanship in January. The committee's chief counsel said this week that if any reversal of the blacklist decision were to be made this year, the new policy probably would have been agreed upon during the Armed Services Committee's already completed annual authorization hearings for fiscal year 1976.
The Business School, which used to reserve 15 places in its Advanced Management Program for military personnel, is the Harvard graduate school most directly affected by the blacklist rule.
