1966: "to obstruct the free movement of Robert McNamara, then Secretary of Defense, when he paid a visit here as a guest of the Institute of Politics", no punishment (6).

Dow incident in 1967, faculty was willing to overlook the act as protesters claimed their tactics were justified, so great was the grievance. Some admonished and others put on probation (6)

Occupation of Paine Hall in December 1968(?) ("December a year ago") in advance of a scheduled meeting of the faculty of Arts and Sciences over the issue of the ROTC but believed by President to be a test of strength. Five students on probation from the dow incident were recommended by the Administrative Board of the College, faculty voted to overturn the decision, continued probation, but recommendation of further 52 students being placed on probation accepted. (7)

"Dismal [academic] year" (1968-9) (5)

Occupation of University Hall: The Administrative Boards were not entrusted to deal with perpetrators, but Faculty of Arts and Sciences elected special committee of its own with student members, so called "Committee of Fifteen". (8) 5 Student members, 3 from college, one each from Radcliffe and Graduate School (16) Costs to Harvard according to President (important to attribute due to incentive to exaggerate): "approximately the equivalent of the annual salaries of two professors or the scholarship stipends of ten or more students.", but also more costs for admin officers (19)

Funny: "Nor am I impressed by the statements of those young who maintained it was only in participating in disruptions - for them high adventure - that for the first time they really live. If such are the requirements for meaningful existence we have indeed come to a sorry pass." (18)

OOT: 600 black students, 40 black faculty and officers, and more than 550 black employees in 1968/9 (10) New program in public policy created by Kennedy School in 1968/9, a masters and a doctors (latter joint with FAS) (11/12), issue was that while many PhD's in American administration, specialisation meant that they might spend all their time on niche and unimportant issues instead of considering the big picture. New program should enable people to work effectively in government and in the private sector due most administrators not being career civil servants (13) Annual cost of operating the university rose from 28 million to 176 million in the last 20 years up to the 1969 academic year
