HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
Although Newsweek's "religion in our Colleges" may have been guilty of overstating its case, it is unfortunate that your reviewer has similarly overstated his. He speaks of "a slight increase in church attendance." If he is referring to Memorial Church, he might with safety apply a somewhat more robust adjective than "slight." When he says that "Harvard has not experienced a religious renascence," it can only be assumed that, like those students quoted in Newsweek, he is equating "Harvard" with himself and his associates. ...Although the results of the report made by the Student Council were vague and the conclusions drawn by Newsweek too general, it can claim to present a somewhat more objective view of Harvard than that gained from individual experience.
