Peter M. Lange, associate professor of Government, and a signer of the Faculty letter, said yesterday he was pleased with the extent of the debate and the Faculty turnout, but added "these meetings always have an impact only over a long period of time...
...events of April 1969 "shattered Harvard's consensus" and "left many wounds," as Pipes says, there is uncertainty over the extent to which those cleavages remain. Within the Faculty, a few professors may bear old grudges--but reaction to the Core Curriculum, for instance, has not broken down along the old "liberal" and "conservative" lines.
