HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
EDWARD has never given anyone cause to complain. He occasionally sups on kipper and cream of pea soup and, in meet other respects, disdains cat ways. He and his mistress, a head resident, enforce parietals in Coggeshall House. Edward and Jason, a dog in North House, are the only legal pets at Radcliffe.
