...issue, in contrast to the first Ad Hoc Committee on Employment Policies, the proposed Mills Plus committee should include as official members professors, workers and students. Faculty members from various disciplines will be able to provide expertise on all aspects of the living wage question, including economic, sociological, moral and historical issues. The committee’s investigative work would also be helped by participation by worker representatives; since its recommendation would be non-binding, Harvard would have no reason to fear an undermining of collective bargaining.

If PSLM had simply padlocked Mass. Hall and refused to reveal the combination...
