...Coop is ever going to change, now is its chance. To approve any amendment affecting the relationship between management and membership at least 25 per cent of the members must vote. Last fall about a thousand members expressed interest in changing the Coop; this fall at least fifteen thousand have to react. The management plans to publicize the changes widely and to allow voting by mail. Only about 30 per cent of Harvard's alumni ever bother to vote for the Board of Overseers...
...first recommendation is that three joint student-faculty committees be created, the first to deal with undergraduate education, the second with graduate education, and the third, which we view as a successor to SFAC, to be concerned with students and community relations. We contemplate equal student and faculty membership in the first two committees and a larger ratio of student membership in the third committee.

We suggest that the eleven student members...
...FIND it useful at this stage to single out the Committee on Houses for special discussion. Our student consultants and indeed all representatives of student organizations with whom we discussed the matter recommended student membership on this committee with particular urgency. In a poll conducted by the Harvard Political Union, in which nearly a thousand students participated, 788 students favored student voting representatives on the Committee on Houses, while only 159 were opposed. Our consultations with the House Masters on this issue evoked mixed reactions. Initially eight of the nine Masters and the Dean of Freshmen joined in a recommendation...
