Officials announced that the Harvard College Fund Drive for 1978 raised a record $6.31 million, surpassing its goal by $60,000. Nonetheless, donations from the Class of '78 were way below expectations, owing to a boycott by many seniors who protested the University's investment policy on South Africa. The drop in donations "indicates that many students are committed enough to withhold what the University needs--which is money," a member of the Southern Africa Solidarity Committee said.
