8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports

The "Student Forum," left-wing British student publication, which furnishes this information, discloses that the Light Blue has already raised $2,000, running a poor second to Oxford which has contributed $6000. All the large English universities appear to be competing.
