HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
The Harvard Graduate Student Council this week sent off a letter to Berkeley's President Clark Kerr recommending to him a study of the Harvard situation for an alleviation of the University of California's problems.
Their recommendation is based on a disapproval of the Berkeley ruling, as they understand it, that "recognized organizations at Berkeley are not meant to engage in political or social action."
In contrast with this, they say, is Harvard's practise of recognizing "student organizations of ever kind, from the reactionary right wing to the radical left...promoting every conceivable kind of social goal, from segregation to integration."
Ralph E. Miller 4G, President of the Grad Council, who signed the letter, told the CRIMSON that Harvard was "very unlikely" to have any Berkeley-style disturbances. "Harvard students have too many diverse interests," he said. "They would never band together against the Administration."
