M.I.T. Corporation Action in Merger

At a meeting yesterday afternoon the corporation of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology voted to instruct its executive committee to announce to the Corporation of Harvard University the willingness of the Institute to co-operate in accordance with the tentative plan for merging the two institutions under discussion, provided that there shall be first obtained a suitable decision from the courts concerning the Boylston street land, and provided also that it shall apply to the Massachusetts Supreme Court for instructions, and that the courts shall have made a decree that this agreement may be carried out without violation of the duties of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a trustee.
