‘The Architect of the Whole Plan’: Harvard Law Graduate Ken Chesebro’s Path to Jan. 6
The staff, with apparently nothing better to do, has fabricated a link between the College administration and final clubs which simply does not exist. Dingman's conversation with Kane, by The Crimson's own news account, can hardly be construed as indicative of the type of covert "direct relationship" upon which this editorial is premised. Neither did the conversation merit the alarming and sensational headline which appeared in the news story.
Dingman is not at fault. The College's disciplinary system has a responsibility to communicate with outside parties who are directly affected by our students' misbehavior. As chair of the subcommittee responsible for the case, Dingman acted responsibly in assuring Kane that the College was concerned and was taking action in this matter. On one hand, the staff calls for greater "openness" to the public. On the other, it inconsistently condemns contact with the D.U., an involved party. Perhaps the staff itself ought to realize that the final clubs, insofar as they concern Harvard, are part of the public whose "right to know" they attempt to defend.
