Brotherhood indeed! True, those male jet jockeys opened the space age with daredevil rides in rinky-dink tin capsules and kangaroo hops across the lunar wasteland. But move over, buddy. The women are coming, breaching that old space boys' club and bursting into what Ms. magazine sardonically calls NASA's world of "flaming, phallic rockets." During the next shuttle launch, sitting right there behind the skipper and his copilot, watching those blinking dials and video displays with her eagle eyes, will be Sally Kristen Ride, 32, former schoolgirl tennis star, Ph.D. in physics, cool, witty and attractive...
...massive, multiracial student turnout and spontaneous exhibition of admiration clearly justify the Leonard/Ross visits and prove that they did more to help Harvard's race relations than so hurt them. Ms. Ross, a gracious, intelligent international star, heard some 60 students at a South House luncheon individually express their fondness for her and explain the significance of her music to their lives.

Ms.Iddelson has failed to cite the tremendous alienation felt by many Third World students toward the Freshman Deans Office, and the deep sense of betrayal they feel because of Dean Mosses inability to understand their needs. Because Ms. Idelson's article Focused on the dynamics of confrontation between Dean Moses and Third World students, it did not adequately convey the basic issues involved. The fact that the Freshman Deans Office does not employ a single Third World staff-person, the fact that the number of Third World freshman...
...Harvard Foundation was instituted, in lies of a Third World Cultural Center, to promote race relations at Harvard University. The sponsorship of this Hollywood entertainer does nothing to promote race relations Ms. Ross did not speak on the subject of race relations in her craft. No one ever thought that she would do so. This is precisely the point Ms. Ross has appealed to audiences from a wide variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, her appeal, however, is not indicative of her ability to promote race relations. The fact is that Ms. Ross does not have a reputation or past...
